Boundary Integral Methods for Electrostatics in Biomolecules
Abstract:
In the second part of the talk, I will focus on the mathematical aspects of integral equation methods (IEM) and fast multipole methods (FMM). I will discuss why integral equation methods are preferred for many problems as well as their limitations. Using a simple example in one dimensional space, I will discuss the fundamental ideas of the tree code and fast multipole methods, and how the ideas can be applied to more general problems.
