  • We present improved $L^2$-error estimates on the time-integrated primal variable for the wave equation in its first-order formulation. The space discretization relies on a hybrid nonconforming method, such as the hybridizable discontinuous Galerkin, the hybrid high-order or the weak Galerkin methods. We consider both equal-order and mixed-order settings on simplices, and include the lowest-order case with piecewise constant unknowns on the faces and in the cells. Our main result is a superclose, resp., optimal bound on the above error in the equal-, resp., mixed-order case. A key result of independent interest to achieve these estimates are novel approximation estimates for an interpolation operator inspired from the hybridizable discontinuous Galerkin literature.
