| contents | Many coupled problems in engineering and science can be described by elliptic partial differential equations on adjacent domains, where the coupling can be considered either as a thin equidimensional overlap between the model domains, or as a lower-dimensional interface. Thereby we distinguish equidimensional and mixed-dimensional models of the same system, and the relationship between these modeling approaches is of natural interest.
In this paper, we construct an overlapping open cover for a class of simplicial geometries and construct a bounded cochain map from the simplicial de Rham complex to the Čech-de Rham complex associated with the overlapping cover. Thus, we establish an isomorphism between simplicial de Rham complexes (i.e. functions and forms on mixed-dimensional partitions and their differentials) and subcomplexes of Čech-de Rham complexes (i.e. functions and forms on equidimensional partitions and their differentials), which serves as an abstract approximation tool for comparing mixed-dimensional problems to the equidimensional version of the same problem. |
