We continue our effort in Li et al. (2024) to explore an interpolated coefficients stabilizer-free weak Galerkin finite element method (IC SFWG-FEM) to solve a one-dimensional semilinear parabolic convection–diffusion equation. Due to the introduction of interpolated coefficients and the design without stabilizers, this method not only possesses the capability of approximating functions and sparsity in the stiffness matrix, but also reduces the complexity of analysis and programming. Theoretical analysis of stability for the semi-discrete IC SFWG finite element scheme is provided. Moreover, numerical experiments are carried out to demonstrate the effectivity and stability.
