About WMNAESM2012
    Quantum molecular simulation is routinely used in chemistry, condensed
    matter physics, materials science, and nanotechnology, and has had a
    massive impact on these fields. In parallel, the mathematical and
    numerical analysis of the corresponding models has raised an increasing
    interest in the mathematical community.

    The purpose of this workshop is to bring together mathematicians working 
    on various aspects of the study of quantum molecular models
    (mathematical physics, analysis of PDEs, numerical analysis, numerical
    methods, and scientific computing), and foster interactions between these
    complementary approaches.

    The program will particularly focus on three topics
    - relativistic models
    - simulation of the N-body Schroedinger equation
    - density functional theory for large and infinite systems
    in which both major achievements have recently been accomplished,
    and exciting questions remain open.
