We consider the time dependent Maxwell's equations in dispersive media in a bounded three-dimensional (3-D) domain. Fully discrete mixed finite element methods are developed for three most popular dispersive media models: i.e., the isotropic cold plasma, the one-pole Debye medium and the two-pole Lo

β¦ Synopsis
A discontinuous Galerkin method for the numerical approximation of time-dependent Maxwell equations in three different dispersive media is introduced. Both the L 2 -stability and error estimate of the DG method are discussed in detail. We show that the proposed method has an accuracy of OΓ°h kΓΎ 1 2 Γ under the L 2 -norm when polynomials of degree k in space are used. Furthermore, numerical experiments are provided to justify our theoretical analysis.

We analyze the nonsymmetric discontinuous Galerkin methods (NIPG and IIPG) for linear elliptic and parabolic equations with a spatially varied coefficient in multiple spatial dimensions. We consider d-linear approximation spaces on a uniform rectangular mesh, but our results can be extended to smoot
