Conformal-radius coefficient-growth conjecture for the Method of Fundamental Solutions
Let be a simply connected domain with analytic boundary, and let be the curve of points with conformal radius . Choose the MFS charge points equally spaced in conformal angle on . Let be the conformal distance of the closest singularity of the analytic continuation of , let be the MFS error, and let be the vector of coefficients of the MFS basis functions that minimizes . Conformal-radius coefficient-growth conjecture. There are constants independent of and such that
if and only if . This conjecture generalizes the observed coefficient-growth dichotomy from the disk to general analytic domains: exponential growth is predicted precisely when the charge-point curve lies beyond the nearest singularity.
