Time and space adaptivity for the second-order wave equation. (English) Zbl 1070.65083

The paper deals with an a posteriori error analysis of fully discrete approximations to the initial-boundary value problem for the wave equation \(u_{tt} - \Delta u = 0\) in a bounded connected open domain in \(\mathbb{R}^d\), \(d \leq 3\). The authors show that the adaptation of the time steps can be combined with the spatial mesh adaptivity in an optimal way.
