More details about the A2: Novel theoretical and computational developments in diagrammatic many-body theory

The symposium focuses on methodological developments for calculating observables from diagrammatic theories in order to gain access to new properties, physical observables, and/or new materials. Target observables comprise ground state properties and static as well as time-resolved excitation spectra. Of particular interest are fundamental theory developments, well-founded new approximations, intelligent low-scaling algorithms, stochastic approaches, embedding techniques, or combinations of approaches from many-body theory, density functional theory and quantum chemistry.

Invited speakers: 

Timothy Berkelbach
Andrea Ferretti
Andreas Grüneis
Vojtech Vlcek
Weitao Yang

Benefits of attending & presenting

The Psi-k Conference is the largest conference on electronic-structure methods. Following very successful events held in San Sebastian (2015), Berlin (2010), and Schwäbisch Gmünd (2005, 2000, 1996), it will bring together scientists from all over the world to discuss recent advances and new breakthroughs. We envisage lively discussions and a boost in science exchange after years of pandemic-related travel restrictions. If you work on diagrammatic method, please submit an abstract now.

Best regards,

Georg Kresse, Lucia Reining, Feliciano Giustino, Patrick Rinke
