Error analysis of BDF schemes for the evolutionary incompressible Navier--Stokes equations (2506.16917v1)

Published 20 Jun 2025 in math.NA and cs.NA

Abstract: Error bounds for fully discrete schemes for the evolutionary incompressible Navier--Stokes equations are derived in this paper. For the time integration we apply BDF-$q$ methods, $q\le 5$, for which error bounds for $q\ge 3$ cannot be found in the literature. Inf-sup stable mixed finite elements are used as spatial approximation. First, we analyze the standard Galerkin method and second a grad-div stabilized method. The grad-div stabilization allows to prove error bounds with constants independent of inverse powers of the viscosity coefficient. We prove optimal bounds for the velocity and pressure with order $(\Delta t)q$ in time for the BDF-$q$ scheme and order $h{k+1}$ for the $L2(\Omega)$ error of the velocity in the first case and $hk$ in the second case, $k$ being the degree of the polynomials in finite element velocity space.
