Abstract
In this study, we present new sharper constructive a priori error estimates for a full-discrete numerical solution of the heat equation that refines our previous work. The full discretization is given using the finite element method in space and linear interpolation in time, similar to that in the previous work. In particular, we adopt an approach based on the effective use of the properties both for exact and discretized time-periodic solutions to establish the error estimates simpler and sharper than the previous work. Furthermore, we derive some time-stepwise error estimates in the space direction. Finally, we present several numerical examples that confirm the actual refinements of the convergence.
