The error estimates are derived in a $W^{1,\\infty}$ norm in one space dimension. One of the features of our analysis is that we establish an equivalent way of formulating the coarse-grained problem which greatly simplifies derivation of the error bounds (both, a priori and a posteriori). We illustrate our error estimates with numerical experiments.", "revisions": [ { "version": "v1", "updated": "2012-10-07T17:03:45.000Z" } ], "analyses": { "subjects": [ "65N30", "70C20", "74G15" ], "keywords": [ "qc method", "error analysis", "complex lattices", "posteriori error estimates", "multiscale numerical method" ], "note": { "typesetting": "TeX", "pages": 23, "language": "en", "license": "arXiv", "status": "editable", "adsabs": "2012arXiv1210.2076A" } } }
