THE A POSTERIORI ERROR ESTIMATOR OF SDG METHOD FOR VARIABLE COEFFICIENTS TIME-HARMONIC MAXWELL'S EQUATIONS

In this paper,we study the a posteriori error estimator of SDG method for variable coefficients time-harmonic Maxwell's equations.We propose two a posteriori error estimators,one is the recovery-type estimator,and the other is the residual-type estimator.We first propose the curl-recovery method for the staggered discontinuous Galerkin method(SDGM),and based on the super-convergence result of the postprocessed solution,an asymptotically exact error estimator is constructed.The residual-type a posteriori error estimator is also proposed,and it's reliability and effectiveness are proved for variable coefficients time-harmonic Maxwell's equations.The efficiency and robustness of the proposed estimators is demonstrated by the numerical experiments.
