| contents | The solution $u$ of an elliptic interface problem in a domain $Ω$ is often smooth away from the interface $Γ\subset Ω$, but its gradient is discontinuous across $Γ$, resulting in low regularity; in particular, $u \notin H^{1.5}(Ω)$. This paper focuses on 1D elliptic interface problems using wavelet methods. We propose a Galerkin method using locally supported biorthogonal wavelet bases on bounded intervals with $m$th approximation order for any integer $m \ge 2$. Additionally, we rigorously prove that its convergence rates are of order $m-1$ in the $H^1(Ω)$-norm and order $m$ in the $L^2(Ω)$-norm, which are optimal with respect to the scheme's approximation order $m$. Our approach involves incorporating wavelet basis functions from higher scale levels to capture the singularity in the neighbourhood of the interface $Γ$. The results in this paper both complement and sharply contrast our findings in Han and Michelle (2024), where we consider a similar wavelet-based method for solving $d$-dimensional elliptic interface problems with $d\ge 2$. |
