Fred King's Research Interests

(under construction) Work on this page is just getting underway.

My research interests fall in a number of different areas of Theoretical/Computational Chemistry/Physics. The principal topics are:

(1) Theoretical calculations on few-electron systems.

(2) Calculation of precise lower bounds for energy levels.

(3) Mathematical problems connected with (1) and (2). These are mostly very difficult multi-dimensional integration problems.

(4) Determining improved numerical methods for solving some of the integration problems that arise in calculations on few-electron systems.

(5) Constraints on optical properties, particularly those determined from general considerations (causality, holomorphic behavior, etc.)

In addition to the above I am interested in the weak bonding interactions in alkali metal-oxalate systems, rigorous mathematical constraints on the atomic and molecular electronic density, Hilbert transform spectroscopy, and a host of other topics.
