Topics

The topics to be covered during the school include:

  • Recent developments in Quantum Espresso (theory)
  • Recent developments in maximally-localized Wannier functions (theory and hands-pn)
  • Carrier transport and magnetotransport coefficients: conductivity, mobility, Hall effect (theory and hands-on)
  • Phonon-limited superconductivity and Migdal-Eliashberg theory (theory and hands-on)
  • Polarons and polaronic effects (theory)
  • Phonon-assisted optical processes (theory and hands-on)
  • Many-body approaches to the electron-phonon problem (theory)
  • Finite-temperature calculations using the special displacement method (theory and hands-on)


The hands-on sessions will be based on the following software:
