TL;DR
This paper establishes theoretical convergence and error estimates for Adams-Bashforth and forward Euler discontinuous Galerkin methods applied to scalar nonlinear conservation laws, highlighting optimal temporal rates and suboptimal spatial rates under CFL conditions.
Contribution
It provides the first a priori error estimates for Adams-Bashforth DG methods and extends convergence analysis to these time-stepping schemes for nonlinear conservation laws.
Findings
Optimal convergence rates in time for the Adams-Bashforth method
Suboptimal convergence rates in space for the DG methods
Error estimates valid under CFL conditions
Abstract
In this paper we show theoretical convergence of a second-order Adams-Bashforth discontinuous Galerkin method for approximating smooth solutions to scalar nonlinear conservation laws with E-fluxes. A priori error estimates are also derived for a first-order forward Euler discontinuous Galerkin method. Rates are optimal in time and suboptimal in space; they are valid under a CFL condition.
