Combined CG-HDG Method for Elliptic Problems: Performance Model
We combine continuous and discontinuous Galerkin methods in the setting of a model diffusion problem. Starting from a hybrid discontinuous formulation, we replace element interiors by more general subsets of the computational domain - groups of elements that support a piecewise-polynomial continuous expansion. This step allows us to identify a~new weak formulation of Dirichlet boundary condition in the continuous framework. We examine the expected performance of a Galerkin solver that would use continuous Galerkin method with weak Dirichlet boundary conditions in each mesh partition and connect partitions weakly using trace variable as in HDG method.
