Abstract

Denoting by S the sharp constant in the Sobolev inequality in W1,2 0 (B), being B the unit ball in ℝ, and denoting by Sh its approximation in a suitable finite element space, we show that Sh converges to S as h south east double arrow 0 with a polynomial rate of convergence. We provide both an upper and a lower bound on the rate of convergence, and present some numerical results.
