Topological properties of the electron density of solids and molecules. Recent developments in Oviedo

Abstract

Some of the latest advances in the analysis of electron density are reviewed, including: (a) topological indices that provide a useful characterization of the global properties of the density; (b) specific results on some prototypical metal and low heteropolarity systems; and (c) calculation of the local curvature of the interatomic surface.
