Abstract
Fast multipole methods (FMMs) based on the oscillatory Helmholtz kernel can reduce the cost of solving N-body problems arising from boundary integral equations (BIEs) in acoustics or electromagnetics. However, their cost strongly increases in the high-frequency regime. This paper introduces a new directional FMM for oscillatory kernels (defmm: directional equispaced interpolation-based fmm), whose precomputation and application are FFT-accelerated due to polynomial interpolations on equispaced grids. We demonstrate the consistency of our FFT approach and show how symmetries can be exploited in the Fourier domain. We also describe the algorithmic design of defmm, well-suited for the BIE nonuniform particle distributions, and present performance optimizations on one CPU core. Finally, we exhibit important performance gains on all test cases for defmm over a state-of-the-art FMM library for oscillatory kernels.
