Abstract
In this paper, we present a time-explicit sparse grid discontinuous Galerkin method for solving the three-dimensional time-domain Maxwell equations. The conservation properties and convergence rates are established for different choices of numerical fluxes. The convergence rates are proved theoretically and then verified by several numerical examples. Even though our scheme does not preserve the divergence, but by implying the higher order polynomial, one can observe the same convergence rate as numerical solution. Several numerical tests are presented to validate these conclusions.
