    The goal of this work is to introduce a local and a global interpolator in Jacobi-weighted spaces, with optimal order of approximation in the context of the pp-version of finite element methods. Then, an a posteriori error indicator of the residual type is proposed for a model problem in two dimensions and, in the mathematical framework of the Jacobi-weighted spaces, the equivalence between the estimator and the error is obtained on appropriate weighted norm

    Computer Algebra meets Finite Elements: an Efficient Implementation for Maxwell's Equations

    Full text link
    We consider the numerical discretization of the time-domain Maxwell's equations with an energy-conserving discontinuous Galerkin finite element formulation. This particular formulation allows for higher order approximations of the electric and magnetic field. Special emphasis is placed on an efficient implementation which is achieved by taking advantage of recurrence properties and the tensor-product structure of the chosen shape functions. These recurrences have been derived symbolically with computer algebra methods reminiscent of the holonomic systems approach.Comment: 16 pages, 1 figure, 1 table; Springer Wien, ISBN 978-3-7091-0793-
