HL 6: Focus Session: Frontiers of Electronic-Structure Theory III (joint session O/HL)
Montag, 27. März 2023, 10:30–13:00, TRE Ma
Electronic-structure calculations, based on density-functional theory (DFT) and methodology beyond, are getting increasingly involved as they face the following challenges: First, investigations of modern materials typically require large unit cells, owing to complex crystal structures, mixed compositions, internal interfaces, etc. Second, at the same time, they often require advanced methods, including hybrid functionals of DFT, Green-function techniques from many-body perturbation theory (MBPT), high-level wavefunction-based methods like coupled-cluster (CC) theory, or quantum Monte-Carlo simulations. All these methods should ideally be implemented in scientific software that is running efficiently on modern supercomputers. With both methodology and computer architectures exhibiting increasing complexity, collaborative development and shared tools, including ready-to-use libraries and codes, are becoming indispensable. This interdisciplinary symposium covers recent progress in the broad area of electron-structure methods and highly-sophisticated tools that enable the entire community to explore most exciting materials from different perspectives to either predict peculiar features or get insight into measured counterparts.
