Based on the auxiliary subspace techniques, a hierarchical basis a posteriori error estimator is proposed for the Stokes problem in two and three dimensions. For the error estimator, we need to solve only two global diagonal linear systems corresponding to the degree of freedom of velocity and pressure respectively, which reduces the computational cost sharply. The upper and lower bounds up to an oscillation term of the error estimator are also shown to address the reliability of the adaptive method without saturation assumption. Numerical simulations are performed to demonstrate the effectiveness and robustness of our algorithm.
