Linear-scaling methods in ab initio quantum-mechanical calculations

The work described in this dissertation concerns the development of new methods for performing computer simulations of real materials from first principles or <I>ab initio </I>i.e. using the fundamental equations of quantum mechanics and only well-controlled approximations. In particular...
