Abstract In this paper we consider two-sided parabolic inequalities of the form (li) $$\psi _1 \leqslant u \leqslant \psi _2 , in{\mathbf{ }}Q;$$ (lii) $$\left[ { - \frac{{\partial u}}{{\partial t}} + A(t)u + H(x,t,u,Du)} \right]e \geqslant 0, in{\mathbf{ }}Q,$$ for alle in the convex support cone of the solution given by $$K(u) = \left\{ {\lambda (\upsilon - u):\psi _1 \leqslant \upsilon \leqslant \psi _2 ,\lambda 〉 0} \right\}{\mathbf{ }};$$ (liii) $$\left. {\frac{{\partial u}}{{\partial v}}} \right|_\Sigma = 0, u( \cdot ,T) = \bar u$$ where $$Q = \Omega \times (0,T), \sum = \partial \Omega \times (0,T).$$ Such inequalities arise in the characterization of saddle-point payoffsu in two person differential games with stopping times as strategies. In this case,H is the Hamiltonian in the formulation. A numerical scheme for approximatingu is obtained by the continuous time, piecewise linear, Galerkin approximation of a so-called penalized equation. A rate of convergence tou of orderO(h 1/2) is demonstrated in theL 2(0,T; H 1(Ω)) norm, whereh is the maximum diameter of a given triangulation.
