Bubble stabilized discontinuous Galerkin methods on conforming and non-conforming meshes

The aim of this paper is to discuss the properties of the bubble stabilized discontinuous Galerkin method with respect to mesh geometry. First we show that on certain non-conforming meshes the bubble stabilized discontinuous Galerkin method allows for hanging nodes/edges. Then we consider the case of conforming meshes and present a post-processing algorithm based on the Crouzeix-Raviart method to obtain the Bubble Stabilized Discontinuous Galerkin (BSDG) method. Although finally the post-processed solution does not coincide with the BSDG-solution in general, they satisfy the same (approximation) properties and are close to each other. Moreover, the post-processed solution has continuous flux over the edges.
