报告内容摘要：

Convolution-type potential are common and important in many science and engineering
fields. E_cient and accurate evaluation of such nonlocal potentials are essential in practical simulations. In this talk, I will focus on those arising from quantum physics/chemistry and lightning-shield protection, including Coulomb, dipolar and Yukawa potentials that are generated by isotropic and anisotropic smooth and fast-decaying density. The convolution kernel is usually singular or discontinuous at the origin and/or at the far field, and density might be anisotropic, which together present great challenges for numerics in both accuracy and efficiency. The state-of-art fast algorithms includeWavelet based Method(WavM), kernel truncation method(KTM), NonUniform-FFT based method(NUFFT) and Gaussian-Sum based method(GSM). Gaussian-sum/exponential-sum approximation and kernel truncation technique, combined with finite Fourier series and Taylor expansion, finally lead to a O(N log N) fast algorithm achieving spectral accuracy. Applications to NLSE are reviewed.
