Abstract
In this paper, we derive a residual based a posteriori error estimator for a modified weak Galerkin formulation of second order elliptic problems. We prove that the error estimator used for interior penalty discontinuous Galerkin methods still gives both upper and lower bounds for the modified weak Galerkin method, though they have essentially different bilinear forms. More precisely, we prove its reliability and efficiency for the actual error measured in the standard DG norm. We further provide an improved a priori error estimate under minimal regularity assumptions on the exact solution. Numerical results are presented to verify the theoretical analysis.
