Discontinuous Galerkin Multiscale Methods for Elliptic Problems

In this paper a continuous Galerkin multiscale method (CGMM) and a discontinuous Galerkin multiscale method (DGMM) are proposed, both based on the variational multiscale method for solving partial differential equations numerically. The solution is decoupled into a coarse and a fine scale contribution, where the fine-scale contribution is computed on patches with localized right hand side. Numerical experiments are presented where exponential decay of the error is observed when increasing the size of the patches for both CGMM and DGMM. DGMM gives much better accuracy when the same size of the patches are used.
