Adaptive Finite Element Approximation of Eigenvalue Clusters.

 

Abstract: This paper analyses an adaptive nonconforming finite element method for eigenvalue clusters of self-adjoint operators and proves optimal convergence rates (with
respect to the concept of nonlinear approximation classes) for the approximation of
the invariant subspace spanned by the eigenfunctions of the eigenvalue cluster. Applications include eigenvalues of the Laplacian and of the Stokes system.
