We present a new analysis of finite element methods for partial differential equations over curved domains. In many applications, a change of variables translates a physical Poisson problem over a curved physical domain into a parametric Poisson problem ov ...
We survey recent contributions to finite element exterior calculus on manifolds and surfaces, giving a comprehensive formalism for the error analysis of vector-valued partial differential equations on manifolds. We first discuss uniformly bounded commuting ...

We study symmetries of bases and spanning sets in finite element exterior calculus, using representation theory. We want to know which vector-valued finite element spaces have bases invariant under permutation of vertex indices. The permutations of vertex ...
We describe higher-order chain rules for multivariate functions and tensor fields. We estimate Sobolev-Slobodeckij norms, Musielak-Orlicz norms, and the total variation seminorms of the higher derivatives of tensor fields after a change of variables and de ...
We show that the standard partition of unity subordinate to an open cover of a metric space has Lipschitz constant max(1, M - 1)/L, where Lis the Lebesgue number and M is the multiplicity of the cover. If the metric space satisfies the approximate midpoint ...
We give a systematic self-contained exposition of how to construct geometrically decomposed bases and degrees of freedom in finite element exterior calculus. In particular, we elaborate upon a previously overlooked basis for one of the families of finite e ...
