Abstract:  We give a proof of the existence of a solution of reconstruction operators used in the $P_NP_M$ DG schemes in one space dimension. Some properties and error estimates of the projection and reconstruction operators are presented. Then, by applying the $P_NP_M$ DG schemes to the linear advection equation, we study their stability obtaining maximal limits of the Courant numbers for several $P_NP_M$ DG schemes mostly experimentally. A numerical study explains how the stencils used in the reconstruction affect the efficiency of the schemes.
