Abstract

A short proof of convergence for the discretization of the Hodge-Dirac operator in the framework of discrete exterior calculus (DEC) is provided using the techniques established in [Johnny Guzm\'an and Pratyush Potu, A Framework for Analysis of DEC Approximations to Hodge-Laplacian Problems using Generalized Whitney Forms, arXiv:2505.08934, 2025]
