- Are there combinatorial algorithms to find a basis for the k-cycles in a
- triangulation of an n-dimensional manifold?
-
- The intended application is the solution of partial differential
- equations by finite elements in R^2 and R^3, particularly
- electromagnetic field computations. There is a well-known method for
- k=1 and a recent publication probably takes care of k= n-1.
-
- Has anybody solved the general case on a computer? I don't think the
- solution is known in my field. References, anyone?
