Summary:
An interior penalty method for certain two-dimensional curl-curl problems
is investigated in this paper. This method
computes the divergence-free part of the solution using locally
divergence-free discontinuous P1 vector fields on graded meshes. It
has optimal order convergence (up to an arbitrarily small ε) for
the source problem and the
eigenproblem. Results of numerical experiments that corroborate the
theoretical results are also presented.
