One can define the öptimal" Green function for such a method that results in the numerical solution that converges to the equivalent Particle-Mesh solution in the limit of sufficiently high order of multipoles. A discrete functional equation for the optimal Green function can be derived, but is not practically useful as methods for its solution are not known. Instead, this paper presents an approximation for the optimal Green function that is accurate to better than 1e-3 in LMAX norm and 1e-4 in L2 norm for practically useful multipole counts. Such an approximately optimal Green function offers a practical way for implementing FMM with periodic boundary conditions "natively", without the need to compute lattice sums or to rely on hybrid FMM-PM approaches.
