A posteriori error estimation and adaptivity in the maximum norm
Alan Demlow
Texas A&M University, USA - demlow@math.tamu.edu
In this talk I will discuss recent progress in constructing adaptive algorithms for controlling errors in the maximum norm. The main focus of the talk will be the construction of robust a posteriori error estimators for singularly perturbed elliptic reaction-diffusion problems. Time permitting, I may also discuss the sharpness of logarithmic factors that typically arise in maximum norm a posteriori estimates.
