Finite element exterior calculus (FEEC) has been developed over the past decade as a framework for constructing and analyzing stable and accurate numerical methods for partial differential equations by employing differential complexes. The recent work of Arnold, Falk and Winther cite{ArFaWi2010} includes a well-developed theory of finite element methods for Hodge Laplace problems, including a priori error estimates. In this work we focus on developing a posteriori error estimates in which the computational error is bounded by some computable functional of the discrete solution and problem data. More precisely, we prove a posteriori error estimates of residual type for Arnold-Falk-Winther mixed finite element methods for Hodge-de Rham Laplace problems. While a number of previous works consider a posteriori error estimation for Maxwells equations and mixed formulations of the scalar Laplacian, the approach we take is distinguished by unified treatment of the various Hodge Laplace problems arising in the de Rham complex, consistent use of the language and analytical framework of differential forms, and the development of a posteriori error estimates for harmonic forms and the effects of their approximation on the resulting numerical method for the Hodge Laplacian.

In this work we study a residual based a posteriori error estimation for the CutFEM method applied to an elliptic model problem. We consider the problem with non-polygonal boundary and the analysis takes into account the geometry and data approximati on on the boundary. The reliability and efficiency are theoretically proved. Moreover, constants are robust with respect to how the domain boundary cuts the mesh.

We describe discretisations of the shallow water equations on the sphere using the framework of finite element exterior calculus, which are extensions of the mimetic finite difference framework presented in Ringler, Thuburn, Klemp, and Skamarock (Jou rnal of Computational Physics, 2010). The exterior calculus notation provides a guide to which finite element spaces should be used for which physical variables, and unifies a number of desirable properties. We present two formulations: a ``primal formulation in which the finite element spaces are defined on a single mesh, and a ``primal-dual formulation in which finite element spaces on a dual mesh are also used. Both formulations have velocity and layer depth as prognostic variables, but the exterior calculus framework leads to a conserved diagnostic potential vorticity. In both formulations we show how to construct discretisations that have mass-consistent (constant potential vorticity stays constant), stable and oscillation-free potential vorticity advection.
For the Hodge--Laplace equation in finite element exterior calculus, we introduce several families of discontinuous Galerkin methods in the extended Galerkin framework. For contractible domains, this framework utilizes seven fields and provides a uni fying inf-sup analysis with respect to all discretization and penalty parameters. It is shown that the proposed methods can be hybridized as a reduced two-field formulation.

The Richards equation is commonly used to model the flow of water and air through soil, and it serves as a gateway equation for multiphase flows through porous media. It is a nonlinear advection-reaction-diffusion equation that exhibits both paraboli c-hyperbolic and parabolic-elliptic kinds of degeneracies. In this study, we provide reliable, fully computable, and locally space-time efficient a posteriori error bounds for numerical approximations of the fully degenerate Richards equation. For showing global reliability, a nonlocal-in-time error estimate is derived individually for the time-integrated $H^1(H^{-1})$, $L^2(L^2)$, and the $L^2(H^1)$ errors. A maximum principle and a degeneracy estimator are employed for the last one. Global and local space-time efficiency error bounds are then obtained in a standard $H^1(H^{-1})cap L^2(H^1)$ norm. The reliability and efficiency norms employed coincide when there is no nonlinearity. Moreover, error contributors such as flux nonconformity, time discretization, quadrature, linearization, and data oscillation are identified and separated. The estimates are also valid in a setting where iterative linearization with inexact solvers is considered. Numerical tests are conducted for nondegenerate and degenerate cases having exact solutions, as well as for a realistic case. It is shown that the estimators correctly identify the errors up to a factor of the order of unity.

Many practical problems occur due to the boundary value problem. This paper evaluates the finite element solution of the boundary value problem of Poissons equation and proposes a novel a posteriori local error estimation based on the Hypercircle met hod. Compared to the existing literature on qualitative error estimation, the proposed error estimation provides an explicit and sharp bound for the approximation error in the subdomain of interest and is applicable to problems without the $H^2$ regularity. The efficiency of the proposed method is demonstrated by numerical experiments for both convex and non-convex 2D domains.
