“…The following result shows that the limit Y ≡ X ε,δ n , i.e., that the numerical solution of scheme (42) converges to the unique variational solution of (7) for τ → 0. Owing to the properties (10), (11) the convergence proof follows standard arguments for the convergence of numerical approximations of monotone equations, see for instance [9], [6], and is therefore omitted. We note that the convergence of the whole sequence {X ε,δ,n τ } τ >0 follows by the uniqueness of the variational solution.…”
