A fast algorithm for time-dependent radiative transport equation based on integral formulation
In this work, we introduce a fast numerical algorithm to solve the time-dependent radiative transport equation (RTE). Our method uses the integral formulation of RTE and applies the treecode algorithm to reduce the computational complexity from O(M^2+1/d ) to O(M^1+1/d log M ), where M is the number of points in the physical domain. The error analysis is presented and numerical experiments are performed to validate our algorithm.
