external link * JAVA Animation of the Fast Multipole Method is broken, and I couldn't find an alternate location. Pity, it was nice...

well, I found a link direcly to the .jar file and updated the broken link in the article with it --Goulu 08:46, 14 September 2010 (UTC) —Preceding unsigned comment added by Goulu (talk • contribs)

Merger proposal[edit]

I propose that Multilevel fast multipole method be merged into Fast multipole method. They both say pretty similar things, and any extra info will be useful to expand this article a bit. If no-one objects, I'll start merging them in a few days. ―JuPitEer (talk) 10:45, 27 February 2017 (UTC)[reply]

@JuPitEer:I would not agree. Multilevel fast multipole method seems biased versus a specific implementation, and towards Feko (see the page). The Fast Multipole Method is a well known, distinctly recognized numerical method. Further elaborations over this method (there are many) can find space in additional pages. Unless you are proposing to talk about the FMM first, and then all the known variants of the method. This would be ok, but listing only the multilevel FMM would be really limiting.
