Abstract
The study of optimized Schwarz methods for Maxwell’s equations started with the Helmholtz equation, see [2–4, 11]. For the rot-rot formulation of Maxwell’s equations, optimized Schwarz methods were developed in [1], and for the more general form in [9, 10]. An entire hierarchy of families of optimized Schwarz methods was analyzed in [8], see also [5] for discontinuous Galerkin discretizations and large scale experiments. We present in this paper a first analysis of optimized Schwarz methods for Maxwell’s equations with non-zero electric conductivity. This is an important case for real applications, and requires a new, and fundamentally different optimization of the transmission conditions. We illustrate our analysis with numerical experiments.
