This article reviews several fast algorithms for boundary integral equations. After a brief introduction of the boundary integral equations for the Laplace and Helmholtz equations, we discuss in order the fast multipole method and its kernel independent variant, the hierarchical matrix framework, the wavelet based method, the high frequency fast multipole method, and the recently proposed multidirectional algorithm.
