Our research

The Ghent Quantum Chemistry Group works at the interface of theoretical chemistry with physics and advanced computational science.

We are interested in the development of new ab initio methods and the investigation of chemical concepts from quantum mechanics. In the area of chemical concepts, we aim to extend the range of applicability of these concepts by reformulating them in quantum chemical terms.

In the area of method development, we focus on developing powerful theoretical methods that were deemed computationally intractable, including large configuration interaction calculations and density matrix methods.
