In three space dimensions methods of order $2m$ to $2m+2$ require $(m+1)^3$ degrees-of-freedom per node for each field variable and can be explicitly marched in time with steps independent of $m$. We prove stability for time steps limited only by domain-of-dependence requirements along with error estimates in a special seminorm associated with the interpolation process. Numerical experiments are presented which demonstrate that Hermite methods of very high order enable the efficient simulation of electromagnetic wave propagation over thousands of wavelengths.application/pdfenIn Copyrightcs.NAmath.NAArticleAppelo, Daniel [0000-0002-0378-4563]
