Abstract: | This paper discusses a class of quadratic immersed finite element (IFE) spaces developed for solving second order elliptic
interface problems. Unlike the linear IFE basis functions, the quadratic IFE local nodal basis functions cannot be uniquely
defined by nodal values and interface jump conditions. Three types of one dimensional quadratic IFE basis functions are presented
together with their extensions for forming the two dimensional IFE spaces based on rectangular partitions. Approximation capabilities
of these IFE spaces are discussed. Finite element solutions based on these IFE for representative interface problems are presented
to further illustrate capabilities of these IFE spaces.
