Cohomology of the discrete de Rham complex on domains of general topology (2209.00957v3)
Published 2 Sep 2022 in math.NA and cs.NA
Abstract: In this work we prove that, for a general polyhedral domain of $\mathbb{R}3$, the cohomology spaces of the discrete de Rham complex of [Di Pietro and Droniou, An arbitrary-order discrete de Rham complex on polyhedral meshes: Exactness, Poincar\'e inequalities, and consistency, Found. Comput. Math., 2021, DOI: 10.1007/s10208-021-09542-8] are isomorphic to those of the continuous de Rham complex. This is, to the best of our knowledge, the first result of this kind for an arbitrary-order complex built from a general polyhedral mesh.
