Abstract: This article presents a new primal-dual weak Galerkin finite element method for the div-curl system with tangential boundary conditions and low-regularity assumptions on the solution. The numerical scheme is based on a weak variational form involving no partial derivatives of the exact solution supplemented by a dual or ajoint problem in the general context of the weak Galerkin finite element method. Optimal order error estimates in $L^2$ are established for solution vector fields in $H^θ(Ω),\ θ>\frac12$. The mathematical theory was derived on connected domains with general topological properties (namely, arbitrary first and second Betti numbers). Numerical results are reported to confirm the theoretical convergence.
