Immersed Finite Element Method for Eigenvalue Problem
  We consider the approximation of elliptic eigenvalue problem with an immersed interface. The main aim of this paper is to prove the stability and convergence of an immersed finite element method (IFEM) for eigenvalues using Crouzeix-Raviart $P_1$-nonconforming approximation. We show that spectral analysis for the classical eigenvalue problem can be easily applied to our model problem. We analyze the IFEM for elliptic eigenvalue problem with an immersed interface and derive the optimal convergence of eigenvalues. Numerical experiments demonstrate our theoretical results.
