An arbitrary-order Cell Method with block-diagonal mass-matrices for the time-dependent 2D Maxwell equations

Bernard Kapidani

We introduce a new numerical method for the time-dependent Maxwell equations on unstructured meshes in two space dimensions. This relies on the introduction of a new mesh, which is the barycentric-dual cellular complex of the starting simplicial mesh, and ...
