Title: Transforming stabilization into spaces

In the framework of finite element methods for ordinary differential equations, we consider the continuous Galerkin method (introduced in 72) and the discontinuous Galerkin method (introduced in 73/74). We uncover the fact that both methods discretize the time derivative in exactly the same form, and discuss a few of its consequences. We end by briefly describing our ongoing work on the extension of this result to some Galerkin methods for partial differential equations.
