Research TopicMolecular electronic-structure theory for multi-reference problems in chemistry
My specialty is research on molecular electronic-structure calculation and its implementation using high performance computing. In the electronic structure calculations, we compute how electrons behave in molecules according to the fundamental equations of quantum mechanics, predicting chemical reactions and the required energies, for example. While the magnificent dream of solving all problems of chemistry on a computer may seem truly a pipe dream, thanks to the rapid evolution of computer technology and the development of the electronic-structure theories, the dream is coming true even with a computer on your lap. There still remain challenges in analyzing large complex systems, and I would like to contribute to solving the problems of our society.
