    Quasi-optimal convergence rate for an adaptive boundary element method (English)
    0 references
    The authors are concerned with the lowest-order Galerkin boundary element method (BEM) in order to solve the weakly singular intergral equation associated with the simple layer potential of 3D Laplacian. They introduce an \(h\)-adaptive BEM in the following steps: solve, estimate, mark and refine. They also show its linear convergence and identify an approximation class for which the method converges at the optimal rate. The adaptive technique is illustrated on the 2D screen problem known for strong edge singularities of its solution.
