In this paper we develop two conforming finite element methods for a fourth order bi-wave equation arising as a simplified Ginzburg-Landau-type model for d-wave superconductors in absence of applied magnetic field. Unlike the biharmonic…
Only a few numerical methods can treat boundary value problems on polygonal and polyhedral meshes. The BEM-based Finite Element Method is one of the new discretization strategies, which make use of and benefits from the flexibility of these…
We introduce a new class of unfitted finite element methods with high order accurate numerical integration over curved surfaces and volumes which are only implicitly defined by level set functions. An unfitted finite element method which is…
In this paper, we first construct the $H^2$(curl)-conforming finite elements both on a rectangle and a triangle. They possess some fascinating properties which have been proven by a rigorous theoretical analysis. Then we apply the elements…
In this paper, we are concerned with the convergence rate of a FEM based numerical scheme approximating extremal functions of the Sobolev inequality. We prove that when the domain is polygonal and convex in $\R^2$, the convergence of a…
Explicit time advancement for continuous finite elements requires the inversion of a global mass matrix. For spectral element simulations on quadrilaterals and hexahedra, there is an accurate approximate mass matrix which is diagonal,…
Mesh adaption procedures for finite element approximation allows one to adapt the resolution, by local refinement in the regions of strong variation of the function of interest. This procedure plays a key role in numerous applications of…
We construct test function spaces for geometric finite elements. Geometric finite elements (GFE) are generalizations of Lagrangian finite elements to situations where the unknown function maps into a nonlinear space. Test functions for such…
In this paper we study dual bases functions in subspaces. These are bases which are dual to functionals on larger linear space. Our goal is construct and derive properties of certain bases obtained from the construction, with primary focus…
Finite element spaces by Whitney $k$-forms on cubical meshes in $\mathbb{R}^n$ are presented. Based on the spaces, compatible discretizations to $H\Lambda^k$ problems are provided, and discrete de Rham complexes and commutative diagrams are…
We consider families of finite elements on polygonal meshes, that are defined implicitly on each mesh cell as solutions of local Poisson problems with polynomial data. Functions in the local space on each mesh cell are evaluated via…
The state-of-the art proof of a global inf-sup condition on mixed finite element schemes does not allow for an analysis of truly indefinite, second-order linear elliptic PDEs. This paper, therefore, first analyses a nonconforming finite…
Two types of finite element spaces on triangles are constructed for div-div conforming symmetric tensors. Besides the normal-normal continuity, the stress tensor is continuous at vertices and another trace involving combination of…
In our previous works, we proved that the inverse of the stiffness matrix of an $h$-version finite element method (FEM) applied to scalar second order elliptic boundary value problems can be approximated at an exponential rate in the block…
We develop a method for generating degree-of-freedom maps for arbitrary order finite element spaces for any cell shape. The approach is based on the composition of permutations and transformations by cell sub-entity. Current approaches to…
In this paper, a piecewise quadratic nonconforming finite element method on rectangular grids for a fourth-order elliptic singular perturbation problem is presented. This proposed method is robustly convergent with respect to the…
Edge (or N\'ed\'elec) finite elements are theoretically sound and widely used by the computational electromagnetics community. However, its implementation, specially for high order methods, is not trivial, since it involves many…
The density of polynomials in a weighted space of infinitely differentiable functions in a multidimensional real space is proved under minimal conditions on weight functions and on differences between weight functions. We apply this result…
A finite-dimensional Hilbert space is usually described in terms of an orthonormal basis, but in certain approaches or applications a description in terms of a finite overcomplete system of vectors, called a finite tight frame, may offer…
We consider finitary approximations of the (embedding) Ramsey property. Using a class of homogeneous reducts of random ordered hypergraphs, we prove that these properties form a strict hierarchy. We also show that every class of finite…
