The problem of solving partial differential equations (PDEs) on manifolds can be considered to be one of the most general problem formulations encountered in computational multi-physics. The required covariant forms of balance laws as well as the corresponding covariant forms of the constitutive closing relations are naturally expressed using the b...

... verification of our implementation without adaptivity, we compute the kernel of the Hodge Laplacian problem with k = n − 1 = 1 on the torus with Betti number b 1 = 2 embedded in R 3 . Using lowest-order elements of type σ ∈ P − 1 Λ 0 and u ∈ P − 1 Λ 1 we thus obtain an approximation of the basis for the harmonic forms H 1 , which is shown in Fig. 6. It can clearly be seen that the covector fields obtained circulate around the 1-holes of the torus. To demonstrate the potential of adaptivity, we solve the Hodge Laplacian problem for k = n = 2, i.e. the mixed formulation of the scalar Laplacian, on an L-shaped domain. By Arnold, Falk and Winther (2006) [3], we choose as a stable ...

In this article, a weak Galerkin finite element method for the Laplace equation using the harmonic polynomial space is proposed and analyzed. The idea of using the \(P_k\)-harmonic polynomial space instead of the full polynomial space \(P_{k}\) is to use a much smaller number of basis functions to achieve the same accuracy when \(k\geqslant 2\). Th...
We derive low-order, inf-sup stable and divergence-free finite element approximations for the Stokes problem using Worsey-Farin splits in three dimensions and Powell-Sabin splits in two dimensions. The velocity space simply consists of continuous, piecewise linear polynomials, where as the pressure space is a subspace of piecewise constants with we...
