Abstract

Function value recovery techniques for linear finite elements are discussed. Using the recovered function and its gradient, we are able to enhance the eigenvalue approximation and increase its convergence rate to $h^{2\alpha}$, where $\alpha 1$ is the superconvergence rate of the recovered gradient. This is true in both symmetric and nonsymmetric eigenvalue problems.
