The method yields optimal convergence rates in both the broken energy norm and the $L^2$- norm and can be written in conservative form with fluxes independent of any stabilization parameter.The symmetric discontinuous Galerkin method does not need stabilization in 1D for polynomial orders p ≥ 2text::journal::journal article::research article
