We will present advancements on the theory and application of High Order Mimetic Difference Operators. The main goal of this research is to construct local high order difference approximations of differential operators on nonuniform grids that mimic the properties of the continuum operators. Partial differential equations solved with these mimetic difference approximations often automatically satisfy discrete versions of conservation laws and analogies to stoke's theorem that are true in the continuum and as a consequence are more likely to produce physically faithful results.
