Complexity and Convergence of Electrostatic and van der Waals Energies within PME and Cutoff Methods

Abstract: In this paper, we report a detailed comparison between the popularly used cutoff and Particle Mesh Ewald (PME) methods in terms of the time complexity and the energy convergence of the long-range electrostatic and van der Waals interaction calculations. For the comparison, we performed var...
