Abstract:

Most adaptive finite element strategies employ the Dörfler marking strategy to single out certain elements $\mathcal {M} \subseteq \mathcal {T}$ of a triangulation $\mathcal {T}$ for refinement. In the literature, different algorithms have been proposed to construct $\mathcal {M}$, where usually two goals compete. On the one hand, $\mathcal {M}$ should contain a minimal number of elements. On the other hand, one aims for linear costs with respect to the cardinality of $\mathcal {T}$. Unlike expected in the literature, we formulate and analyze an algorithm, which constructs a minimal set $\mathcal {M}$ at linear costs. Throughout, pseudocodes are given.
