In this paper, we are concerned with the mathematical and numerical analysis of convergence and stability of the mixed formulation for incompressible elasticity in cracked domains. The objective is to extend the extended finite element method (X-FEM) cut-off analysis done in the case of compressible elasticity to the incompressible one. A mathematical proof of the inf-sup condition of the discrete mixed formulation with X-FEM is established for some enriched fields. We also give a mathematical result of quasi-optimal error estimate. Finally, we validate these results with numerical tests.
