7.11 Let = ( 0 , 2 π) 2 be a square, and suppose u H 0 () is a weak solution
of u = f with f L 2 () . Using Problem 1.16, show that u L 2 () , and
then use the Cauchy-Schwarz inequality to show that all second derivatives lie in
L 2 , and thus u is an H 2
function.
7.12 (A superconvergence property) The boundary-value problem with the ordinary
differential equation
u (x) = f(x),
x ( 0 , 1 ),

Let u h be the solution in the set of piecewise linear functions on a partition of ( 0 , 1 ) ,
and let v h be the interpolant of u in the same set. Show that u h = v h by verifying
a(u h v h ,w h ) =
0 for all piecewise linear w h .
