Abstract.

The coupling of nonconforming finite element and boundary element methods was established in Part I of this paper, where quasi-optimal a priori error estimates are provided. In the second part, we establish sharp a posteriori error estimates and so justify adaptive mesh-refining algorithms for the efficient numerical treatment of transmission problems with the Laplacian in unbounded domains.
