Abstract

In this paper we present a new idea to stabilize Continuous Galerkin Schemes on grids with hanging nodes by using Discontinuous Galerkin (DG) approximations. We derive an a posteriori error estimate for a class of DG schemes including the CDG and CDG2 methods and apply this to standard test cases for CG methods such a the reentrant corner.
