Abstract

En 中文
Stabilizer-free Pk virtual elements are constructed on polygonal and polyhedral meshes. Here the interpolating space is the space of continuous Pk polynomials on a triangular-subdivision of each polygon, or a tetrahedral-subdivision of each polyhedron. With such an accurate and proper interpolation, the stabilizer of the virtual elements is eliminated while the system is kept positive-definite. We show that the stabilizer-free virtual elements converge at the optimal order in 2D and 3D. Numerical examples are computed, validating the theory.
