Yes, that makes sense to me. But now if we have neighboring faces with differrent refinement levels (e.g. the face element on one side is only half as long as the one on the other side) the situation gets a little more complicated, right? Since then you cannot just copy the coefficients 1 to 1, or do I get that wrong?

Yes. But then make_hanging_node_constraints() knows what to do with this. The hp_*_identities() functions aren't used for this.


So what you suggest is that one could actually go on and implement hp_*_identities for FE_FaceP, in the way you describe? Do you know of some other element that already implements this, not using interpolation, which one could use as reference?

I don't know for sure if that element implements the hp constraints, but the modal RT element has a similar structure in that the degrees of freedom are located on the faces and are defined via modes or integrals, rather than interpolation. (There is also an interpolatory RT element; both of them are available in deal.II.)
