Abstract

In this paper we will consider two curl-curl equations in two dimensions. One curl-curl problem for a scalar quantity F and one problem for a vector field E. For Dirichlet boundary conditions n× E= Ê⊣ on E and Neumann boundary conditions n×curlF=Ê⊣, we expect the solutions to satisfy E = curl F. When we use algebraic dual polynomial representations, these identities continue to hold at the discrete level. Equivalence will be proved and illustrated with a computational example.
