Minisymposium Title: Mathematics and Algorithms for Excited States of Materials
Minisymposium Description: Quantitative predictions for excited state phenomena are at the leading edge of modern theories for the electronic structure of materials. These predicative capabilities have a wide range of applications in the design and simulation of new materials for photovoltaics, energy storage and other nanoelectronic devices. In this minisymposium, we bring researchers from both materials science and mathematics to discuss methodologies and algorithms for modeling, computing and analyzing excited state properties of materials. The topics to be covered include but are not limited to many-body perturbation theory and Green's function methods, time-dependent density functional theory
