The coupling is realized with a mortar variable that is related to an impedance trace on a smooth interface. The method obtained has a block structure with nonsingular subblocks. We prove quasi-optimality of the $h$- and $p$-versions of the scheme, under a threshold condition on the approximability properties of the discrete spaces. Amongst others, an essential tool in the analysis is a novel discontinuous-to-continuous reconstruction operator on tetrahedral meshes with curved faces.", "revisions": [ { "version": "v1", "updated": "2021-05-13T10:04:19.000Z" } ], "analyses": { "subjects": [ "65N38", "65N12", "65N15", "35J05", "65R20" ], "keywords": [ "boundary element method", "helmholtz equation", "mortar coupling", "discontinuous galerkin finite element method", "novel discontinuous-to-continuous reconstruction operator" ], "tags": [ "journal article" ], "publication": { "publisher": "Springer" }, "note": { "typesetting": "TeX", "pages": 0, "language": "en", "license": "arXiv", "status": "editable" } } }
