We propose a harmonic surface mapping algorithm (HSMA) for electrostatic pairwise sums of an infinite number of image charges. The images are induced by point sources within a box due to a specific boundary condition which can be non-periodic. The HSMA first introduces an auxiliary surface such that the contribution of images outside the surface can be approximated by the least-squares method using spherical harmonics as basis functions. The so-called harmonic surface mapping is the procedure to transform the approximate solution into a surface charge and a surface dipole over the auxiliary surface, which becomes point images by using numerical integration. The mapping procedure is independent of the number of the sources and is considered to have a low complexity. The electrostatic interactions are then among those charges within the surface and at the integration points, which are all the form of Coulomb potential and can be accelerated straightforwardly by the fast multipole method to achieve linear scaling. Numerical calculations of the Madelung constant of a crystalline lattice, electrostatic energy of ions in a metallic cavity, and the time performance for large-scale systems show that the HSMA is accurate and fast, and thus is attractive for many applications.

We present a novel technique by which highly-segmented electrostatic configurations can be solved. The Robin Hood method is a matrix-inversion algorithm optimized for solving high density boundary element method (BEM) problems. We illustrate the capa
bilities of this solver by studying two distinct geometry scales: (a) the electrostatic potential of a large volume beta-detector and (b) the field enhancement present at surface of electrode nano-structures. Geometries with elements numbering in the O(10^5) are easily modeled and solved without loss of accuracy. The technique has recently been expanded so as to include dielectrics and magnetic materials.
The explicit formulas expressing harmonic sums via alternating Euler sums (colored multiple zeta values) are given, and some explicit evaluations are given as applications.
In micromagnetic simulations, the demagnetization field is by far the computationally most expensive field component and often a limiting factor in large multilayer systems. We present an exact method to calculate the demagnetization field of magneti
c layers with arbitrary thicknesses. In this approach we combine the widely used fast-Fourier-transform based circular convolution method with an explicit convolution using a generalized form of the Newell formulas. We implement the method both for central processors and graphics processors and find that significant speedups for irregular multilayer geometries can be achieved. Using this method we optimize the geometry of a magnetic random-access memory cell by varying a single specific layer thickness and simulate a hysteresis curve to determine the resulting switching field.
A second mapping method is introduced in the generalized discrete singular convolution algorithm. The mapping approaches are adopted to regularize singularities for one electron system. The applications of the two mapping methods are generalized from
the radial hydrogen problem to the one-dimensional hydrogen problem. Three mapping functions are chosen: the square-root mapping function, the cube-root mapping function, and the logarithm mapping function. However, the present mapping approaches fail in both the two-dimensional and three-dimensional hydrogen problems, because the wavefunctions of s-states at the nuclei are not correct.
Understanding many processes, e.g. fusion experiments, planetary interiors and dwarf stars, depends strongly on microscopic physics modeling of warm dense matter (WDM) and hot dense plasma. This complex state of matter consists of a transient mixture
of degenerate and nearly-free electrons, molecules, and ions. This regime challenges both experiment and analytical modeling, necessitating predictive emph{ab initio} atomistic computation, typically based on quantum mechanical Kohn-Sham Density Functional Theory (KS-DFT). However, cubic computational scaling with temperature and system size prohibits the use of DFT through much of the WDM regime. A recently-developed stochastic approach to KS-DFT can be used at high temperatures, with the exact same accuracy as the deterministic approach, but the stochastic error can converge slowly and it remains expensive for intermediate temperatures (<50 eV). We have developed a universal mixed stochastic-deterministic algorithm for DFT at any temperature. This approach leverages the physics of KS-DFT to seamlessly integrate the best aspects of these different approaches. We demonstrate that this method significantly accelerated self-consistent field calculations for temperatures from 3 to 50 eV, while producing stable molecular dynamics and accurate diffusion coefficients.
