In the approximate solution of the Dirichlet problem for Poisson's equation many finite difference methods have been proposed. It is important for the formulation of the approximating problem to have some measure of the deviation of the finite difference solution from the exact solution. The question of convergence itself for a class of problems has been discussed by COURANT, FRIEDRICHS and LEWY [8 I.In t930 GERSCHGORIN [5] gave a method for obtaining an estimate of the order of convergence of the finite difference approximation to the solution of the Dirichlet problem for a class of elliptic equations. His method was based on a maximum principle for the tinite difference analogue. In a note in 1933 COLLATZ [11 proposed a certain boundary approximation and, using the techniques of GERSCHGORIN, showed that this approximation gives rise to an 0 (h 2) estimate for the truncation error. The estimates of both GERSCHGORIN and COLLATZ assume the knowledge of bounds for certain higher derivatives of the solution of the Dirichlet problem.
