In this paper we present an immersed weak Galerkin method for solving second-order elliptic interface problems on polygonal meshes, where the meshes do not need to be aligned with the interface. The discrete space consists of constants on each edge and broken linear polynomials satisfying the interface conditions in each element. For triangular meshes, such broken linear plynomials coincide with the basis functions in immersed finite element methods [26]. We establish some approximation properties of the broken linear polynomials and the discrete weak gradient of a certain projection of the solution on polygonal meshes. We then prove an optimal error estimate of our scheme in the discrete H1-seminorm under some assumptions on the exact solution. Numerical experiments are provided to confirm our theoretical analysis.
