Does fenics support meshes with hanging nodes?

Hi,

I have created a nonconforming mesh( with hanging node) in .msh format using Matlab. I need to solve the Laplace equation with homogeneous Dirichlet boundary conditions using CG/DG method. I can import this mesh into fenics. I used the usual weak formulation of the Laplace equation, but Fenics does not compute the exact solution.

My question is, does Fenics solves any PDE on meshes with hanging nodes? If yes, how to treat these hanging nodes?

Thank you.
Best regards,
Pratik

Not out-of-the-box. But feel free to create your own implementation. Would be wonderful to have.
