Partially penalized immersed finite element methods for parabolic interface problems

We present partially penalized immersed finite element methods for solving parabolic interface problems on Cartesian meshes. Typical semi-discrete and fully discrete schemes are discussed. Error estimates in an energy norm are derived. Numerical examples are provided to support theoretical analysis.
