The course gives an introduction to advanced quantum chemical methods for electronic-structure calculations beyond Hartree-Fock theory. The main topics are: Advanced density-functional theory, Time-dependent density-functional theory, Electron-density and wavefunction analysis, Density-matrix functional theory, Many-body perturbation theory coupled cluster theory and other advanced electron-correlation methods (density-matrix renormalization group algorithms, quantum Monte Carlo methods).
