Abstract
We present a computational approach to infinite nuclear matter employing Hartree-Fock theory, many-body perturbation theory and coupled cluster theory. These lectures are closely linked with those of Chaps. 9, 10 and 11 and serve as input for the correlation functions employed in Monte Carlo calculations in Chap. 9, the in-medium similarity renormalization group theory of dense fermionic systems of Chap. 10 and the Green’s function approach in Chap. 11 We provide extensive code examples and benchmark calculations, allowing thereby an eventual reader to start writing her/his own codes. We start with an object-oriented serial code and end with discussions on strategies for porting the code to present and planned high-performance computing facilities.
