Periodic BC #7

Closed ivan-pi closed 4 years ago

ivan-pi commented 4 years ago

Is it possible to use this library to calculate short-ranged potentials in periodic geometries or is it aimed primarily towards open systems? According to the description in this thesis the FMM can be modified also for periodic BCs.

Hi,

The current release is for open systems only. It will be extended to periodic systems in the near future.
