AbstractWe perform the error analysis of a stabilized discontinuous Galerkin scheme for the initial boundary value problem associated with the magnetic induction equations using standard discontinuous Lagrange basis functions. In order to obtain the quasi-optimal convergence incorporating second-order Runge–Kutta schemes for time discretization, we need a strengthened {4/3}-CFL condition ({\Delta t\sim h^{4/3}}). To overcome this unusual restriction on the CFL condition, we consider the explicit third-order Runge–Kutta scheme for time discretization. We demonstrate the error estimates in {L^{2}}-sense and obtain quasi-optimal convergence for smooth solution in space and time for piecewise polynomials with any degree {l\geq 1} under the standard CFL condition.
