Chem. Phys. 149 (8) (2018) 084111] and HSMA2D [J. Chem. Phys. 152 (13) (2020) 134109], into a new user package HSMA for molecular dynamics simulation engine LAMMPS. The HSMA package is designed for efficient and accurate modeling of electrostatic interactions in 3D and 2D periodic systems with dielectric effects at the O(N) cost. The implementation is hybrid MPI and OpenMP parallelized and compatible with existing LAMMPS functionalities. The vectorization technique following AVX512 instructions is adopted for acceleration. To establish the validity of our implementation, we have presented extensive comparisons to the widely used particle-particle particle-mesh (PPPM) algorithm in LAMMPS and other dielectric solvers. With the proper choice of algorithm parameters and parallelization setup, the package enables calculations of electrostatic interactions that outperform the standard PPPM in speed for a wide range of particle numbers.","url_abs":"https://arxiv.org/abs/2104.05260v1","url_pdf":"https://arxiv.org/pdf/2104.05260v1.pdf","source":{"archive":"pwc-archive (Hugging Face), CC BY-SA 4.0","snapshot":"2025-07-28","licence_url":"https://creativecommons.org/licenses/by-sa/4.0/legalcode","row_kind":"links_only","authors_date_abstract":"arXiv metadata, CC0 1.0 (https://info.arxiv.org/help/license), from the Kaggle arXiv metadata snapshot of 2026-09-12"},"code_links":[{"paper_slug":"hsma-an-o-n-electrostatics-package","repo_url":"https://github.com/LiangJiuyang/HSMA-Harmonic-surface-mapping-algorithm-in-LAMMPS","is_official":1,"mentioned_in_paper":1,"mentioned_in_github":1,"framework":"none","reach":null}],"tasks":[],"methods":[],"datasets_introduced":[],"methods_introduced":[],"results":[],"syntology":{"atlas_url":null,"mcp":null,"developers":"https://syntology.ai/developers"},"arxiv_metadata":null,"syntology_extracted_results":null}
