Abstract We are concerned with an Interior Penalty Discontinuous Galerkin (IPDG) approximation of the p-Laplace equation and an equilibrated a posteriori error estimator. The IPDG method can be derived from a discretization of the associated minimization problem involving appropriately defined reconstruction operators. The equilibrated a posteriori error estimator provides an upper bound for the discretization error in the broken W 1,p norm and relies on the construction of an equilibrated flux in terms of a numerical flux function associated with the mixed formulation of the IPDG approximation. The relationship with a residual-type a posteriori error estimator is established as well. Numerical results illustrate the performance of both estimators.

The theory of generalized locally Toeplitz (GLT) sequences is a powerful apparatus for computing the asymptotic spectral distribution of matrices An arising from virtually any kind of numerical discretization of differential equations (DEs). Indeed, when the mesh fineness parameter n tends to infinity, these matrices An give rise to a sequence {An}n, which often turns out to be a GLT sequence or one of its “relatives”, i.e., a block GLT sequence or a reduced GLT sequence. In particular, block GLT sequences are encountered in the discretization of systems of DEs as well as in the higher-order finite element or discontinuous Galerkin approximation of scalar DEs. Despite the applicative interest, a solid theory of block GLT sequences has been developed only recently, in 2018. The purpose of the present paper is to illustrate the potential of this theory by presenting a few noteworthy examples of applications in the context of DE discretizations.
