the potential is the one developed by Feldman and Hirshberg, which scales like :math:`N^2+PN` :ref:`(Feldman) <Feldman>`.
The forces are calculated as weighted averages over the representative permutations,
through an algorithm that scales the same as the one for the potential calculation, :math:`N^2+PN` :ref:`(Feldman) <Feldman>`.
The algorithm employs the minimum image convention to approximate the bosonic periodic boundary conditions.
An elaborate discussion of the validity of the approximation is available in :ref:`(Higer) <HigerFeldman>`.
