In this paper, we present a split least-squares characteristic mixed finite element method(MFEM) to get the approximate solutions of the convection dominated Sobolev equations. First, to manage both convection term and time derivative term efficiently, we apply a least-squares characteristic MFEM to get the system of equations in the primal unknown and the flux unknown. Then, we obtain a split least-squares characteristic MFEM to convert the coupled system in two unknowns derived from the least-squares characteristic MFEM into two uncoupled systems in the unknowns. We theoretically prove that the approximations constructed by the split least-squares characteristic MFEM converge with the optimal order in L² and H¹ normed spaces for the primal unknown and with the optimal order in L² normed space for the flux unknown. And we provide some numerical results to confirm the validity of our theoretical results.

We introduce an extrapolated Crank-Nicolson characteristic finite element method to approximate solutions of a convection dominated Sobolev equation. We obtain the higher order of convergence in both the spatial direction and the temporal direction in $L^2$ normed space for the extrapolated Crank-Nicolson characteristic finite element method.

In this paper, we introduce fully discrete mixed discontinuous Galerkin approximations for parabolic problems. And we analyze the error estimates in $l^{\infty}(L^2)$ norm for the primary variable and the error estimates in the energy norm for the primary variable and the flux variable.
