The SUM is always the PGS (weighted sum of allele dosages) calculated on the matched variants. The SUM may change when you run with/without ancestry adjustment because the variants overlapping your genotypes and the reference panel might not be identical.

The other methods (Z_MostSimilarPop, percentile_MostSimilarPop, Z_norm1, or Z_norm2) are different ways for reporting a PGS with respect to genetic ancestry, you can see more information here: https://pgsc-calc.readthedocs.io/en/latest/explanation/geneticancestry.html.
