We would like this event to be a workshop in the original meaning of the word, or rather a "discussion meeting", with the main goal of having as much exchange as possible and trying to set and to address some challenges together.  
  
This is why we are proposing, along with a closed list of participants, an original format including the following 5 (unusual) ingredients:
+
There will be three types of oral interventions:
  
# One '''<font color=green>introductory lecture</font>''' on modern Valence Bond theory, and current mathematical and algorithmic techniques in use.
+
# '''<font color=green>« Perspective talks »</font>''': the purpose is to synthetically and didactically present the state-of-the-art of a specific approach, pinpointing questions, opening current challenges to solve, and providing food for thought for discussion. We strongly recommend the participants to prepare '''material for no more than a ~20-25 min standard talk''' (with as much as backside slide as they want of course), in order to allow a majority of the time to be dedicated to comments, questions, additions from other participants and discussions during the course of the presentation.
# A few '''<font color=green>« perspective talks »</font>''', where a (or several) participant(s) will present the state-of-the-art of a specific approach, including open questions and current challenges. A time slot of 45 min will be allocated, but '''material for no more than a ~20-25 min standard talk''' should be prepared, in order to allow comments, questions and additions from other participants during the course of the presentation.
+
# '''<font color=green>« Short perspectives »</font>''': during those shorter intervention a specific facet or point related to one of the « perspective talks » or more generally to the topic of the session will be '''very briefly presented''' and discussed. In the same spirit as the "perspective talks", we strongly recommend participants to prepare '''material for no more than a ~10-12 min standard talk''' in order to allow a majority of the time to be dedicated to comments, questions, additions from other participants and discussions during the course of the presentation.
# A few '''<font color=green>"short perspectives"</font>''' where a specific facet or point related to one of the « perspective talks » will be '''very briefly presented''' and discussed. A time slot of 20 min will be allocated, but in the same spirit as the "perspective talks" '''material for no more than a ~8-10 min standard talk''' should be prepared.
+
# '''<font color=green>« Points »</font>''': "Framed discussions" will takes place at the end of the half-day session dedicated to a precise "challenge" to be addressed. During it, 2-3 participants will '''extremely briefly''' introduce '''ONE''' specific point (ONE precise idea, suggestion or question, related to the theme of the session), in '''no more than ~3-5 min (=> ~1-2 slides)''', and open questions for the discussion; to be followed by extensive discussions framed by an animator, in order to address collectively this particular "challenge".
# '''<font color=green>« Framed discussions »</font>''': sessions (of ~1h30 overall duration) dedicated to a precise "challenge" to be addressed. It is intended that 2-3 participants will '''extremely briefly''' introduce '''ONE''' specific point (ONE precise idea, suggestion or question, related to the "challenge"), in '''no more than ~3-5 min (=> ~1-2 slides)''', and open questions for the discussion; to be followed by extensive discussions framed by an animator, in order to address collectively this particular "challenge".
 
# All the way through the meeting: extended coffee breaks and lunch times, in order to facilitate the continuation of lively discussions in small groups in a more informal and flexible way
 
  
  
 
So this event '''will not feature usual types of scientific presentations''', but original and specific forms of contributions with the intention of '''<font color=red>stimulating discussions, exchanges, collective work</font>''', with a format intended to favour this.

===Challenges===
 
List of possible challenges that could be collectively addressed during the "framed discussions".
 
  
The final selection of (~3-4) topics that will be treated during the meeting will be decided after interactions among the participants.
+
The global schedule can be found below. We have kept it the least structured possible in order to allow maximal flexibility.
 
 
Current list:
 
# New algorithms for VB wave functions (matrix elements evaluation, orbital optimization).
 
# New classes of VB methods (beyond HLSP VB wave-functions)
 
# New wave function based on nonorthogonal Molecular Orbitals
 
# Efficient and cheap inclusion of dynamical correlation.
 
# Strategies for excited states.
 
# Strategies for complex systems (metals, bio(in)organic systems, extended systems, intermolecular interactions)
 
 
 
 
 
<big><font color=red>'''=> Please [mailto:benoit.braida@upmc.fr email us] to tell us:'''</font>
 
* which challenge(s) in the list above you would like to see selected for a "framed discussion" ;
 
* if you would like a slot (~3-5 min) to introduce a point in one of the challenges above ;
 
* if you would agree to animate the discussions for one of the specific challenges listed.
 
 
 
Indicate to us also if, in addition, you would like to give a "perspective talk" or a "short perspective talk" (following the format detailed in the previous section). Please specify clearly the topic you would like to cover, including a prospective title.
 
 
 
<font color=red>'''IMPORTANT:'''</font> Note that we'll try to have at most 50% of the total time of this workshop devoted to the introductory + perspective talks (long+short), and at least 50% devoted to the framed discussions. So there will be '''few slots for perspectives talks (long+short) allocated''', and thus '''we strongly encourage you to favour active participation in the framed discussions''' (you can ask for several slots in several of the discussions, as well as to animate a discussion). Besides, considering also the large number of participants for this type of event, unfortunately not everybody will be given the opportunity to talk. </big>
 
 
 
=== Schedule ===
 
 
 
The final precise schedule will be established after interaction with the participants, see points indicated by a red arrow (" '''<big><font color=red>=></font></big>''' ") in the section above.

Bagarre-generale-dans-le-village-d-asterix-image-270215-art.jpg

A previous discussion meeting a long time ago.



We would like this event to be a workshop in the original meaning of the word, or rather a "discussion meeting", with the main goal of having as much exchange as possible and trying to set and to address some challenges together.

There will be three types of oral interventions:

  1. « Perspective talks »: the purpose is to synthetically and didactically present the state-of-the-art of a specific approach, pinpointing questions, opening current challenges to solve, and providing food for thought for discussion. We strongly recommend the participants to prepare material for no more than a ~20-25 min standard talk (with as much as backside slide as they want of course), in order to allow a majority of the time to be dedicated to comments, questions, additions from other participants and discussions during the course of the presentation.
  2. « Short perspectives »: during those shorter intervention a specific facet or point related to one of the « perspective talks » or more generally to the topic of the session will be very briefly presented and discussed. In the same spirit as the "perspective talks", we strongly recommend participants to prepare material for no more than a ~10-12 min standard talk in order to allow a majority of the time to be dedicated to comments, questions, additions from other participants and discussions during the course of the presentation.
  3. « Points »: "Framed discussions" will takes place at the end of the half-day session dedicated to a precise "challenge" to be addressed. During it, 2-3 participants will extremely briefly introduce ONE specific point (ONE precise idea, suggestion or question, related to the theme of the session), in no more than ~3-5 min (=> ~1-2 slides), and open questions for the discussion; to be followed by extensive discussions framed by an animator, in order to address collectively this particular "challenge".


So this event will not feature usual types of scientific presentations, but original and specific forms of contributions with the intention of stimulating discussions, exchanges, collective work, with a format intended to favour this.


The global schedule can be found below. We have kept it the least structured possible in order to allow maximal flexibility.
