Convergence Analysis of the Wolf Method for Coulombic Interactions

Submitted by arash_yavari on

A rigorous proof for convergence of the Wolf method for calculating electrostatic energy of a periodic lattice is presented. In particular, we show that for an arbitrary lattice of unit cells, the lattice sum obtained via Wolf method converges to the one obtained via Ewald method.
