Abstract

In this paper we study the convergence of monotone P1 finite element methods for fully nonlinear Hamilton–Jacobi–Bellman equations with degenerate, isotropic diffusions. The main result is strong convergence of the numerical solutions in a weighted Sobolev space L²(H¹γ(Ω)) to the viscosity solution without assuming uniform parabolicity of the HJB operator.
