Current and charge formulations have been shown to stem from Maxwell s equations by relaxing the contraint associated to divergence by means of Lagrange multipliers. The later formulation of electromagnetics is known as Picard s system (introduced by Picard, 1984). Goal of this work : clarifying the analysis of this approach (Calderón calculus? traces? well-posedness? etc...) Initial idea : rewrite Picard s system as a 2nd order problem and try to adapt the analysis presented in Costabel (1988).

24 Garding s inequality A classical tool for proving Garding s inequality for Maxwell related operators (see e.g. [Buffa & Hiptmair, 2002]) is the existence of a projector É : H 1/2 ( Ú,) H 1/2 ( Ú,) such that aaaaa É maps continuously into H 1/2 r () := {n u, u À 1 (Ω) 3 } aaaaa Ö(É) = {u H 1/2 ( Ú,), Ú (u) = 0}. Define an involutionθ 2 = Á by [ ] [ p p Θ( ) := α α ] [ 2 É(p) κ 2 Ú (p) ].
