Logarithm cannot be removed in maximum norm error estimates for linear finite elements in 3D

Research output: Contribution to journalArticlepeer-review

Abstract

For linear finite element discretizations of the Laplace equation in three dimensions, we give an example of a tetrahedral mesh in the cubic domain for which the logarithmic factor cannot be removed from the standard upper bounds on the error in the maximum norm.
