Abstract :
In this paper, we describe several fast methods for solving electromagnetic scattering problems. Notably, we discuss iterative surface integral equation solvers such as the 3D fast multipole method, multilevel fast multipole method, rough surface scattering using steepest descent path fast multipole method, and the thin-stratified media fast multipole method
