Presentation

The French research network "GdR Correlation" organizes its general meeting at UPMC on the Jussieu campus in Paris on November 27-29 2013. The topic is recent developments of new electronic-structure computational methods in quantum chemistry.

The first day, four international speakers will give a pedagogical lecture (in English) on the state of the art and perspectives of different methods. Each presentation will be followed by a discussion with the audience. The aim is to promote the diffusion of these methods within the French theoretical chemistry community. The four lectures will be:

• Evert Jan Baerends, Perspectives on density-functional theory and density-matrix functional theory
• Garnet Chan, Perspectives on strongly correlated electrons
• Jürgen Gauss, Perspectives on coupled-cluster methods
• Christian Ochsenfeld, Perspectives on correlated linear-scaling methods

The second and third day will give the opportunity to the French community to present their work via 25-min oral communications (in French or English) and posters.
