A note on the energy norm for a singularly perturbed model problem

A singularly perturbed reaction-diffusion model problem is considered, and the choice of an appropriate norm is discussed. Particular emphasis is given to the energy norm. Certain prejudices against this norm are investigated and disproved. Moreover, an adaptive finite element algorithm is presented which exhibits an optimal error decrease in the energy norm in some simple numerical experiments. This underlines the suitability of the energy norm.
