Experienced technical skills

• Standard methods of theoretical physics at the level of the Landau-Lifshitz course (7-year teaching experience) and basic methods of quantum field theory.
• Wide range of mathematical methods including partial differential equations, asymptotic methods, functional analysis, random processes, combinatorics, point and space groups, numerical methods.
• Advanced methods of statistical physics including series expansions, exact enumeration, exactly solvable models, scaling theory, mean-field theory, variational approach, Monte-Carlo methods, ALPS for spin models.
• Computational quantum mechanics: SCF calculations, geometry optimization, structure prediction, vibronic couplings, exact analytical diagonalization, MOPAC for semiempirical calculations, TINKER and LAMMPS for classical molecular mechanics, Gaussian for ab-initio calculations with GTO, VASP for ab-initio calculations with plane waves, ALPS for state of the art calculations of model systems (e.g. Hubbard model).
