Abstract: Multiple scattering theory, also known as Korringa-Kohn-Rostoker (KKR) method, is
an all electron, first principles approach to electronic structure calculations. In this presentation,
I will introduce the multiple scattering theory and give an overview of its latest development. I
will also discuss its unique features and advantages compared to other ab initio methods.
Finally, I will show several important applications of the method in condensed matter physics
and materials science.
