On discrete functional inequalities for some finite volume schemes

We prove several discrete Gagliardo-Nirenberg-Sobolev and Poincaré-Sobolev inequalities for some approximations with arbitrary boundary values on finite volume meshes. The keypoint of our approach is to use the continuous embedding of the space $BV(Ω)$ into $L^{N/(N-1)}(Ω)$ for a Lipschitz domain $Ω\subset \mathbb{R}^{N}$, with $N \geq 2$. Finally, we give several applications to discrete duality finite volume (DDFV) schemes which are used for the approximation of nonlinear and non isotropic elliptic and parabolic problems.
