We present new finite elements for solving the Riesz maps of the de Rham complex on triangular and tetrahedral meshes at high order. The finite elements discretize the same spaces as usual, but with different basis functions, so that the…

Recently $C^m$-conforming finite elements on simplexes in arbitrary dimension are constructed by Hu, Lin and Wu. The key in the construction is a non-overlapping decomposition of the simplicial lattice in which each component will be used…
The present paper has two objectives. On one side, we develop and test numerically divergence free Virtual Elements in three dimensions, for variable ``polynomial'' order. These are the natural extension of the two-dimensional divergence…
The paper shows an inf-sup stability property for several well-known 2D and 3D Stokes elements on triangulations which are not fitted to a given smooth or polygonal domain. The property implies stability and optimal error estimates for a…
