A sparse hierarchical $hp$-finite element method on disks and annuli
We develop a sparse hierarchical $hp$-finite element method ($hp$-FEM) for the Helmholtz equation with rotationally invariant variable coefficients posed on a two-dimensional disk or annulus. The mesh is an inner disk cell (omitted if on an annulus domain) and concentric annuli cells. The discretization preserves the Fourier mode decoupling of …
