  • Abstract
    It can be shown that the matrix structure resulting from a fast multipole method (FMM)-based algorithm is an ℋ2-matrix, but with a full-rank representation for electrically large analysis. We compare the computational complexity of a volume integral equation (VIE) solver having a minimal-rank ℋ2-representation with that of a VIE solver using an FMM-based ℋ2-representation. The former is shown to be strict O(N) in storage and matrix-vector multiplication, and O(NlogN) in inverse irrespective of electric size. Such a complexity has been demonstrated by the analysis of large-scale dielectric scattering problems involving millions of unknowns.
