The Virtual Element Method (VEM) is a numerical technique used for solving partial differential equations (PDEs)[1][2]. It is a generalization of the Finite Element Method (FEM) and is particularly noted for its flexibility in handling complex geometries.
VEM allows the use of general polygonal and polyhedral meshes, accommodating elements with any number of sides. This flexibility simplifies the meshing process for intricate geometries. The method draws inspiration from Mimetic Finite Difference schemes, which aim to replicate the properties of differential operators at the discrete level. Additionally, VEM supports high polynomial degrees, enhancing the accuracy of the solutions.
