โฆ Synopsis
Numerical analysis of difference schemes often reveals the presence of eigenmodes which do not feature in the continuum solution. An examination of the dispersion relation shows how the spurious and physical modes interact. The behaviour of certain wave-profiles was predicted using this analysis and the results confirmed by numerical experiment.

## Abstract Computation of Maxwell eigenmodes in an axisymmetric cavity using hierarchical vector finite elements is presented. The use of curl conforming vector basis functions, which span the null space of the curl operator, leads to the appearance of spurious modes with zero eigenvalues. Such sp
In this article we study Galerkin finite element approximations to integral equations of the Volterra type. Our prime concern is the noncoercive case, which is not covered by the standard finite element theory. The question of rates of convergence is studied for the case where an exact stiffness mat
