A High-Order Fast Direct Solver for Surface PDEs on Triangles. Submitted.
This triangular formulation is designed for complex geometries. For structured meshes, the quadrilateral HPS formulation remains more efficient. The companion work arXiv:2512.24456 gives the broader framework, including quadrilateralization and evolving surfaces.
