    Abstract An interior penalty discontinuous Galerkin method is devised to approximate minimizers of a linear folding model by discontinuous isoparametric finite element functions that account for an approximation of a folding arc. The numerical analysis of the discrete model includes an a priori error estimate in case of an accurate representation of the folding curve by the isoparametric mesh. Additional estimates show that geometric consistency errors may be controlled separately if the folding arc is approximated by piecewise polynomial curves. Various numerical experiments are carried out to validate the a priori error estimate for the folding model.

    Abstract This paper addresses the approximation of fractional harmonic maps. Besides a unit-length constraint, one has to tackle the difficulty of nonlocality. We establish weak compactness results for critical points of the fractional Dirichlet energy on unit-length vector fields. We devise and analyze numerical methods for the approximation of various partial differential equations related to fractional harmonic maps. The compactness results imply the convergence of numerical approximations. Numerical examples on spin chain dynamics and point defects are presented to demonstrate the effectiveness of the proposed methods.
