This paper delves into the world of high-order curl and div elements within finite element methods, providing valuable insights into their geometric properties, indexing management, and practical implementation considerations. It first explores the decomposition of Lagrange finite elements. The discussion then extends to H(div)-conforming finite elements and H(curl)-conforming finite element spaces by choosing different frames at different sub-simplex. The required tangential continuity or normal continuity will be imposed by appropriate choices of the tangential and normal basis. The paper concludes with a focus on efficient indexing management strategies for degrees of freedom, offering practical guidance to researchers and engineers. It serves as a comprehensive resource that bridges the gap between theory and practice in the realm of high-order curl and div elements in finite element methods, which are vital for solving vector field problems and understanding electromagnetic phenomena.
