In this paper, we are concerned with the stochastic Galerkin methods for time-dependent Maxwell’s equations with random input. The generalized polynomial chaos approach is first adopted to convert the original random Maxwell’s equation into a system of deterministic equations for the expansion coefficients (the Galerkin system). It is shown that the stochastic Galerkin approach preserves the energy conservation law. Then, we propose a finite element approach in the physical space to solve the Galerkin system, and error estimates is presented. For the time domain approach, we propose two discrete schemes, namely, the Crank–Nicolson scheme and the leap-frog type scheme. For the Crank–Nicolson scheme, we show the energy preserving property for the fully discrete scheme. While for the classic leap-frog scheme, we present a conditional energy stability property. It is well known that for the stochastic Galerkin approach, the main challenge is how to efficiently solve the coupled Galerkin system. To this end, we design a modified leap-frog type scheme in which one can solve the coupled system in a decouple way—yielding a very efficient numerical approach. Numerical examples are presented to support the theoretical finding.
