Abstract:

We consider the system of linear partial differential equations $\varepsilon {A^{ij}}u_{ij}^\varepsilon + {B^i}u_i^\varepsilon + C{u^\varepsilon } = f$ where ${A^{ij}},{B^i}$ are symmetric $m \times m$ matrices and — C is a sufficiently large positive definite matrix. We prove that under suitable conditions ${\left \| {{u^\varepsilon } - u} \right \|_{{L^2}}} \leq c\surd \varepsilon {\left \| f \right \|_{{H^1}}}$ where u is the solution of a suitable boundary value problem for the system ${B^i}{u_i} + Cu = f$.
