Within the framework of finite element systems, we show how spaces of differential forms may be constructed, in such a way that they are equipped with commuting interpolators and contain prescribed functions, and are minimal under these…
This paper proposes a construction of $C^r$ conforming finite element spaces with arbitrary $r$ in any dimension. It is shown that if $k \ge 2^{d}r+1$ the space $\mathcal P_k$ of polynomials of degree $\le k$ can be taken as the shape…

We discuss the construction of finite element spaces of differential forms which satisfy the crucial assumptions of the finite element exterior calculus, namely that they can be assembled into subcomplexes of the de Rham complex which admit…
We introduce the family of trimmed serendipity finite element differential form spaces, defined on cubical meshes in any number of dimensions, for any polynomial degree, and for any form order. The relation between the trimmed serendipity…

For an arbitrary partially ordered set $P$ its {\em dual} $P^*$ is built as the collection of all monotone mappings $P\to\2$ where $\2=\{0,1\}$ with $0<1$. The set of mappings $P^*$ is proved to be a complete lattice with respect to the…
The article primarily surveys work that followed from the formulas discovered by Avramov and Iyengar in 2008, which permit one to compute certain Hochschild homology and cohomology modules as expressions involving dualizing complexes. One…
Double forms are sections of the vector bundles $\Lambda^{k}T^*\mathcal{M}\otimes \Lambda^{m}T^*\mathcal{M}$, where in this work $(\mathcal{M},\mathfrak{g})$ is a compact Riemannian manifold with boundary. We study graded second-order…

We continue the study of symmetries in the Lagrangian formalism of arbitrary order with the help of the so-called Anderson-Duchamp-Krupka equations. For the case of second-order equations and arbitrary vector fields we are able to establish…
We construct 2D and 3D finite element de Rham sequences of arbitrary polynomial degrees with extra smoothness. Some of these elements have nodal degrees of freedom (DoFs) and can be considered as generalisations of scalar Hermite and…
