Provides a general error estimation framework for electromagnetic problems, extending functional-type a posteriori error bounds from elliptic to Maxwell equations.

The paper derives computable and guaranteed upper and lower bounds for the error in approximate solutions to static Maxwell equations, applicable to any conforming approximation method.

This paper is concerned with the derivation of computable and guaranteed upper and lower bounds of the difference between the exact and the approximate solution of a boundary value problem for static Maxwell equations. Our analysis is based upon purely functional argumentation and does not attract specific properties of an approximation method. Therefore, the estimates derived in the paper at hand are applicable to any approximate solution that belongs to the corresponding energy space. Such estimates (also called error majorants of the functional type) have been derived earlier for elliptic problems.
