The purpose of each of these meetings, which are organized by the Skylaris group, is to present a small part of existing (so not new research) method/algorithm currently implemented in the ONETEP code. Some of these methods may be implemented in other electronic structure codes too (linear-scaling or not).
Each meeting focuses on a small part of a method but will go in depth, so not just the equations you can find in a paper, but also some explanation (e.g. with figures, diagrams etc.) of how the method is implemented in ONETEP, focusing more on the viewpoint of the developer.
The meetings consist of a talk (approximately 15-30 minutes long) followed by questions/discussion. The aim is to describe accurately each method and to convey the science, the maths, and the numerical implementation.
