Research Interests
- First-principles approaches to electronic band structure of materials: Green’s function based many-body perturbation theory (GW and beyond); system-tuned hybrid functionals, etc.
- First-principles approaches to strongly correlated materials: DFT+U, GW+DMFT etc.
- Theoretical study of materials for energy conversion, molecular magnetic materials, and heterogeneous catalysis of transition-metals and oxides.
