A posteriori error estimation in the conforming finite element method based on its local conservativity and using local minimization
[Estimation d'erreur a posteriori dans la méthode des éléments finis conformes basée sur sa conservativité locale et employant une minimisation locale]
Comptes Rendus. Mathématique, Volume 346 (2008) no. 11-12, pp. 687-690.

Nous présentons dans cette Note des estimations a posteriori entièrement calculables, permettant le contrôle d'erreur dans la discrétisation de problèmes à diffusion pure par la méthode des éléments finis conformes. Ces estimations sont basées sur la conservativité locale de la méthode des éléments finis conformes sur un maillage dual associé aux sommets des triangles ou tétraèdres au lieu de l'orthogonalité de Galerkine.

We present in this Note fully computable a posteriori error estimates allowing for accurate error control in the conforming finite element discretization of pure diffusion problems. The derived estimates are based on the local conservativity of the conforming finite element method on a dual grid associated with simplex vertices rather than directly on the Galerkin orthogonality.
