| Summary: | We present a scheme to compress the method of moments (MoM) matrix, which is linear in complexity for low to intermediate frequency problems in electromagnetics. The method is fully kernel independent and easy to implement using existing codes. The O(N) complexity for both memory and time (setup and matrix-vector product) is achieved thanks to the application of a recursive skeletonization to the H2 matrix structure of the MoM matrix that uses the nested nature of the far interactions. The interpolative decomposition is applied in a novel manner in order to compress the “far-field signature” of the groups of basis functions. Moreover the scheme is fully characterized and it proves itself well suited for the analysis of multiscale structures. |
