2020 International Workshop on
Frontiers of Theoretical and Computational Physics and Chemistry
The 2020 International Workshop on Frontiers of Theoretical and Computational Physics and Chemistry will be held in Shen Zhen, China, December 4-7, 2020.The objective of this annual series of workshops is to enhance the dialogue between theoretical physicists and chemists. The workshop this year will focus on "Linear-scaling methods for electronic structure calculations". There will be
24 speakers (25 min each, by invitation, faculty members only), and
an unlimited number of poster presentations (by application and nomination).
We expect that these presentations would cover the main development in the field happened in the past a few years.

Background:
The challenges to physical and chemical theories lie in three aspects: the accuracy, the size, and the time scale. Both theoretical physics and chemistry have enjoyed rapid advances in these contexts and provided great impact on essentially all aspects of experiments. However, theoreticians of the two intimately related disciplines seldom talk to each other. They even do not share the common languages. From the very beginning of the development theoretical chemists have been trying to solve the quantum mechanical equations as accurately as possible, while theoretical physics have been playing with various simplified physical models for obviously complex systems. However, the situations are now being changed in that theoretical chemists also start to look at systems of increasing complexity. Whereas theoretical physicists may want to learn from theoretical chemists about better accuracy, theoretical chemists certainly have to learn from physicists about the true physics.
Motivations:
The very first motivation of the series of workshops entitled “Frontiers of Theoretical and Computational Physics and Chemistry” is to provide a unique forum for theoretical physicists and chemists such that mutual understanding will soon be reached. The second motivation is of course to create mutual collaborations and thus push the frontiers further. The third but not least motivation is to strengthen the interplay between theoreticians and experimentalists.
