## Abstract

In this paper a fourth order finite difference ghost point method for the Poisson equation on regular Cartesian mesh is presented. The method can be considered the high order extension of the second ghost method introduced earlier by the authors. Three different discretizations are considered, which differ in the stencil that discretizes the Laplacian and the source term. It is shown that only two of them provide a stable method. The accuracy of such stable methods are numerically verified on several test problems.

## Recorded benchmark results

A research result applies to its stated dataset, split, metric and evaluation configuration. Compare like-for-like settings, preserve the metric's unit and direction, and distinguish paper-reported results from independent reproduction. The best result recorded here is not a claim of exhaustive, current global coverage.
