摘  要: As is well-known, there are many finite element methods for solving Maxwell equations, such as Nedelec element method, DG method, etc. In this talk, I will talk about the nodal-continuous Lagrange element for solving Maxwell equations. Usually, nodal-continuous elements have been widely used for computational fluid dynamics and solid mechanics, but not for computational electromagnetism. As a matter of fact, till 2002, have continuous elements been firstly really successfully applicable to Maxwell equations, from the paper in the well-renowned journal Numerische Mathematik by M. Costabel and M. Dauge. The main reason challenging issues are two. One is the singular solution which does not belong to $H1$ space. The other is the spurious eigenmodes. Since then, several methods gave been developed. Among others, I and co-authors have proposed a class of methods based on $L2$ projections, which allow the use if nodal-continuous elements. Theoretically and numerically, the methods can well approximate Maxwell equations, behaving like the Nedelec elements, no matter whether the solutions are singular or not, no matter whether the media homogeneous or inhomogeneous, no matter whether the source problem or the eigenvalue problem is solved.
