In this article, we consider the time-dependent Maxwell’s equations modeling wave propagation in metamaterials. One-order higher global superclose results in the L2 norm are proved for several semidiscrete and fully discrete schemes developed for solving this model using nonuniform cubic and rectangular edge elements. Furthermore, L ∞ superconvergence at element centers is proved for the lowest order rectangular edge element. To our best knowledge, such pointwise superconvergence result and its proof are original, and we are unaware of any other publications on this issue.

In this paper we study the generalization of the Brocard congurations. The denition of q-period broken line is given and then the new necessary and sucient condition about the existence of two conjugate Brocard points of the q􀀀period loop broken line is investigated. Based on the past research, a geometric method for the construction of all possible loop broken lines with conjugate Brocard points is developed.

We derive local integral and sup- estimates for the curvature of stable marginally outer trapped surfaces in a sliced space-time. The estimates bound the shear of a marginally outer trapped surface in terms of the intrinsic and extrinsic curvature of a slice containing the surface. These estimates are well adapted to situations of physical interest, such as dynamical horizons.
