Abstract
This work aims at studying the virtual element method (VEM) to solve a simplified friction problem, which is a typical elliptic variational inequality of the second kind. An optimal error estimate is derived in the H1 norm for the lowest-order VEM. A numerical example is reported to demonstrate the theoretically predicted convergence order.
