Cut finite element methods for coupled bulk–surface problems

• We develop a cut finite element method for a second order elliptic coupled bulk-surface model problem. We prove a priori estimates for the energy and (Formula presented.) norms of the error. Using stabilization terms we show that the resulting algebraic system of equations has a similar condition number as a standard fitted finite element method. Finally, we present a numerical example illustrating the accuracy and the robustness of our approach.
