AbstractFor a spatially periodic convection-diffusion problem, we analyze a time stepping method based on Lie splitting of a spatially semidiscrete finite element solution on time steps of length k, using the backward Euler method for the diffusion part and a stabilized explicit forward Euler approximation on {m\geq 1} intervals of length {k/m} for the convection part. This complements earlier work on time splitting of the problem in a finite difference context.

AbstractWe analyze a second-order in space, first-order in time accurate finite difference method for a spatially periodic convection-diffusion problem. This method is a time stepping method based on the first-order Lie splitting of the spatially semidiscrete solution. In each time step, on an interval of length k, of this solution, the method uses the backward Euler method for the diffusion part, and then applies a stabilized explicit forward Euler approximation on {m\geq 1} intervals of length {\frac{k}{m}} for the convection part. With h the mesh width in space, this results in an error bound of the form {C_{0}h^{2}+C_{m}k} for appropriately smooth solutions, where {C_{m}\leq C^{\prime}+\frac{C^{\prime\prime}}{m}}. This work complements the earlier study [V. Thomée and A. S. Vasudeva Murthy, An explicit-implicit splitting method for a convection-diffusion problem, Comput. Methods Appl. Math. 19 2019, 2, 283–293] based on the second-order Strang splitting.
