A hybridizable discontinuous Galerkin method for the quad-curl problem

The quad-curl problem arises in magnetohydrodynamics, inverse electromagnetic scattering and transform eigenvalue problems. In this paper we investigate a hybridizable discontinuous Galerkin method to solve the quad-curl problem based on a mixed formulation. The divergence-free condition is enforced by introducing a Lagrange multiplier into the system. The analysis is performed for the model problem with low regularity, which is posed on a Lipschitz polyhedron domain.

Analysis of a hybridizable discontinuous Galerkin method for the Maxwell operator

In this paper, we study a hybridizable discontinuous Galerkin (HDG) method for the Maxwell operator. The only global unknowns are defined on the inter-element boundaries, and the numerical solutions are obtained by using discontinuous polynomial approximations. The error analysis is based on a mixed curl-curl formulation for the Maxwell equations. Theoretical results are obtained under a more general regularity requirement. In particular for the low regularity case, special treatment is applied to approximate data on the boundary. The HDG method is shown to be stable and convergence in an optimal order for both high and low regularity cases. Numerical experiments with both smooth and singular analytical solutions are performed to verify the theoretical results.
