Abstract

In this paper we develop an adaptive edge finite element method based on a reliable and efficient recovery type a posteriori error estimator for time-harmonic Maxwell equations. The asymptotically exact a posteriori error estimator is based on the superconvergence result proved for the lowest-order edge element on triangular grids, where most pairs of triangles sharing a common edge form approximate parallelograms. The efficiency and robustness of the proposed method is demonstrated by extensive numerical experiments for electromagnetic cloaking problems with highly anisotropic permittivity and permeability.
