Abstract

We design a hybrid high-order (HHO) method to approximate the Stokes problem on curved domains using unfitted meshes. We prove inf-sup stability and a priori estimates with optimal convergence rates. Moreover, we provide numerical simulations that corroborate the theoretical convergence rates. A cell-agglomeration procedure is used to prevent the appearance of small cut cells.
