To avoid the excessive diffusion associated with fully connected mortar couplings, a sparsification strategy based on LGL subcell characteristic functions is introduced, yielding compact interface stencils. The resulting mortar fluxes remain conservative, reduce to the standard conforming formulation on matching interfaces, and naturally fit into graph-viscosity-based low-order schemes used for convex limiting.  \nThe proposed construction provides the missing ingredient required to combine high-order  \nDGSEM discretizations, invariant-domain-preserving limiting, and adaptive mesh refinement within a unified framework for nonlinear hyperbolic conservation laws. We provide numerical verifications of the properties of the proposed scheme and run challenging simulations that require positivity limiting and shock-capturing.  \n1. Introduction  \nHigh-order discontinuous Galerkin (DG) methods have become a popular framework for the numerical approximation of hyperbolic conservation laws due to their excellent accuracy, geometric flexibility, and suitability for modern high-performance computing architectures. Among these methods, the Discontinuous Galerkin Spectral Element Method (DGSEM) based on Legendre–Gauss–Lobatto (LGL) collocation points is particularly attractive because of its tensor-product structure, diagonal mass matrix, and efficient implementation on modern hardware. Moreover, splitform DGSEM discretizations possess favorable nonlinear stability properties and can be constructed to satisfy discrete entropy conservation or entropy stability for a broad class of hyperbolic systems [1–3] .  \nDespite these advantages, high-order DG methods may generate spurious oscillations in the vicinity of discontinuities or under-resolved solution features. Such oscillations can violate essential physical constraints, including positivity of density and pressure for the compressible Euler equations or, more generally, invariant domain properties associated with the underlying system of conservation laws. Preserving these constraints is crucial for the robustness and reliability of simulations involving shocks, strong rarefactions, low-density regions, or under-resolved turbulence.  \nThe development of nonlinear stabilization techniques for high-order finite element and DG methods has a long history. A particularly influential class of approaches is provided by algebraic flux correction (AFC) and flux-corrected transport (FCT) methods, which combine a robust low-order discretization with a high-order target scheme through carefully designed antidiffusive fluxes an","cbCaigz9H4E5aBgl","https://ap.wps.com/l/cbCaigz9H4E5aBgl","pdf",18664074,2,1,30,"English","en",105,"# Introduction\n##
