Abstract: A new virtual element method of least-squares type is proposed for numerically solving a curl-div system, which typically arises from the magnetostatic problem. We employ the nodal virtual elements on polytopal meshes. With the Helmholtz L 2-orthogonal decomposition and the related regular-singular decomposition, we develop a rigorous argument for proving the L 2-coercivity. For the k (k ≥ 1) order virtual element which has the degrees of freedom in the interiors of the element faces, we strictly establish the optimal error estimates O (hr) for the singular solution which has a low regularity and only belongs to (Hr (Ω)) d , d = 2 , 3 , for 1/2 < r < 1. For higher-order regularity solution, L 2-norm O (h k + 1) optimal convergence can hold for k ≥ 1. Numerical results are provided. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]
