R. Cammi et J. Tomasi, REMARKS ON THE USE OF THE APPARENT SURFACE-CHARGES (ASC) METHODS IN SOLVATION PROBLEMS - ITERATIVE VERSUS MATRIX-INVERSION PROCEDURES AND THE RENORMALIZATION OF THE APPARENT CHARGES, Journal of computational chemistry, 16(12), 1995, pp. 1449-1458
We present a formal and numerical comparison between the iterative and
matrix-inversion approaches of the polarizable continuum model. The f
ormal analysis shows completely the equivalence of the two approaches.
Numerical equivalence is also recovered, introducing in both methods
the proper boundary conditions on the apparent charge distribution. (C
