Sorry for being ignorant here, but why is the space "discrete"? It looks
like you should have a continuum formulation
of the mortar as well. Maybe I do not understand something fundamental.
>From this (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Mortar_methods)
short description, it seems that mortars begin from a continuum
formulation, but are then reduced to the discrete level. This is no
problem if done consistently, as for instance in the FETI method where
efficient preconditioners exist.
Thanks,
