Abstract: We consider a family of quadrilateral or hexahedral mixed hp-finite elements for an incompressible flow problem with $Q_r$-elements for the velocity and discontinuous $P_{r-1}$-elements for the pressure where the order $r$ can vary from element to element between $2$ and an arbitrary bound. For multilevel adaptive grids with hanging nodes and a sufficiently small mesh size, we prove the inf-sup condition uniformly with respect to the mesh size and the polynomial degree.

Keywords: Stokes problem, inf-sup condition, mixed hp-FEM, quadrilateral and hexahedral finite elements, multilevel adaptive grids, hanging nodes
