These include the fast multipole method for AWM (Association for Women in Mathematics) the Laplace equation, the fast multipole method for the Helmholtz ChinaMS (Chinese Mathematical Society) equation, and the non-equispaced fast Fourier transform and also CMS–SMC (Canadian Mathematical Society most recently in randomized matrix compression schemes.

His work on Fast Multipole Methods (FMM) has been cited as one Full members: ANZIAM (Australia and New Zealand of the ten algorithmic revolutions of the second half of the 20th Industrial and Applied Mathematics) century. These methods have revolutionized fields like numerical CAIMS–SCMAI (Canadian Applied and electromagnetism for radars and molecular dynamics for chemistry Industrial Mathematics – Société Canadienne de Mathematiques Appliquées et Industrielles) because the computing time to solve the problems is drastically CSCM (Chinese Society for Computational reduced.
