A divergence-free projection method for quasiperiodic photonic crystals in three dimensions
<|reference_start|>A divergence-free projection method for quasiperiodic photonic crystals in three dimensions: This paper presents a point-wise divergence-free projection method for numerical approximations of photonic quasicrystals problems. The original three-dimensional quasiperiodic Maxwell's system is transformed into a periodic one in higher dimensions through a variable substitution involving the projection matrix, such that periodic boundary condition can be readily applied. To deal with the intrinsic divergence-free constraint of the Maxwell's equations, we present a quasiperiodic de Rham complex and its associated commuting diagram, based on which a point-wise divergence-free quasiperiodic Fourier spectral basis is proposed. With the help of this basis, we then propose an efficient solution algorithm for the quasiperiodic source problem and conduct its rigorous error estimate. Moreover, by analyzing the decay rate of the Fourier coefficients of the eigenfunctions, we further propose a divergence-free reduced projection method for the quasiperiodic Maxwell eigenvalue problem, which significantly alleviates the computational cost. Several numerical experiments are presented to validate the efficiency and accuracy of the proposed method.<|reference_end|>
