  text: Multi-evaluation of the Coulomb potential induced by N particles is a central
    part of N-body simulations. In 3D, known subquadratic time algorithms return approximations
    up to given ABSOLUTE precision. By combining data structures from Computational
    Geometry with fast polynomial arithmetic, the present work obtains approximations
    of prescribable RELATIVE error e>0 in time O(1/e*N*polylog N).
