Frequency-explicit convergence analysis of a multiscale finite element method for highly heterogeneous scattering problems

T. Chaumont-Frelet, Z. Kassali

We analyze the numerical approximation of time-harmonic scattering by highly heterogeneous penetrable obstacles. These problems are especially challenging in the high-frequency reg…

An efficient Galerkin method for high-frequency scattering problems using Wilson bases

T. Chaumont-Frelet, M. Ingremeau, F. Proust

We propose a new Galerkin discretization scheme for wave scattering problems that is based on microlocalised basis functions. We show that the proposed method can be made uniformly…

Computable Poincaré--Friedrichs constants for the de~Rham complex over convex domains and domains with shellable triangulations

Théophile Chaumont-Frelet, Martin Werner Licht, Martin Vohralík

We construct potentials for the exterior derivative, in particular, for the gradient, the curl, and the divergence operators, over domains with shellable triangulations. Notably, t…

A ill-posed scattering problem saturating Weyl's law

T. Chaumont-Frelet

This paper focuses on the well-posedness (or lack thereof) of three-dimensional time-harmonic wave propagation problems modeled by the Helmholtz equation. It is well-known that if…
