Stability and error of the variable two-step BDF for parabolic problems
Stability and error of the variable two-step BDF for parabolic problems
Emmrich, Etienne
Inst. Mathematik
The temporal discretisation of a moderate semilinear parabolic problem in an abstract setting by means of the two-step backward differentiation formula with variable step sizes is analysed. Stability as well as optimal error estimates are derived for step size ratios bounded by 1.91.
