Mixed approximation of eigenvalue problems : a superconvergence result
ESAIM: Modélisation mathématique et analyse numérique, Tome 43 (2009) no. 5, pp. 853-865.

We state a superconvergence result for the lowest order Raviart-Thomas approximation of eigenvalue problems. It is known that a similar superconvergence result holds for the mixed approximation of Laplace problem; here we introduce a new proof, since the one given for the source problem cannot be generalized in a straightforward way to the eigenvalue problem. Numerical experiments confirm the superconvergence property and suggest that it also holds for the lowest order Brezzi-Douglas-Marini approximation.
