By employing bubble functions as a critical analytical tool, the proposed method enhances efficiency by partially eliminating the stabilizers traditionally used in WG methods. This streamlined WG method demonstrates stability and effectiveness on convex and non-convex polyhedral meshes, representing a significant improvement over existing stabilizer-free WG methods, which are typically limited to convex elements within finite element partitions. The method achieves an optimal error estimate for the exact solution in a discrete $H^1$ norm, and additionally, an optimal $L^2$ error estimate is established for the WG solution. Several numerical experiments are conducted to validate the method's efficiency and accuracy.", "revisions": [ { "version": "v1", "updated": "2024-10-27T22:23:45.000Z" } ], "analyses": { "subjects": [ "65N30", "65N15", "65N12", "74N20", "35B45", "35J50", "65N30", "65N15", "65N12", "74N20", "35B45", "35J50", "35J35" ], "keywords": [ "weak galerkin finite element methods", "efficient weak galerkin finite element", "polyhedral meshes", "maxwell equations", "convexity constraints" ], "note": { "typesetting": "TeX", "pages": 31, "language": "en", "license": "arXiv", "status": "editable" } } }
