 Theoretical chemistry - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Theoretical chemistry is the use of reasoning to explain or predict chemical phenomena.
Much of this may be categorized as computational chemistry, although computational chemistry usually refers to the application of theoretical chemistry in an applied setting, usually with some approximation scheme such as certain types of post Hartree-Fock, Density Functional Theory, semiempirical methods (like for instance PM3) or force field methods.
Physical chemistry and chemical physics: Chemistry investigated via physical methods like laser techniques, scanning tunneling microscope, etc. The formal distinction between both fields is that physical chemistry is a branch of chemistry while chemical physics is a branch of physics.

 HYLE 3 (1997): Symmetry and Complexity-Fundamental Concepts of Research in Chemistry
This mathematical theory became fundamental for chemistry, when in the midst of the last century the molecular structure of chemical substances were discovered (e.g., Biggs et al.
In general, mathematical symmetries are defined by so-called automorphisms that means self-mappings of figures or structures whereby the structure remains invariant (example: rotation or reflection of polygons in the plane).
Mathematically the potential curve of the reaction equation is assumed to be completely symmetric with respect to inversion.

 Geometrization of the language of chemistry: Mathematical representation of the complex chemical objects
Spatial mathematical models of the sets of different species of atoms and the Periodic table as well as different species of monatomic ions were briefly presented.
As a result: (i) the problem of the geometrization of the language of chemistry was solved on a conceptual level; (ii) it was shown that it would be possible to translate the structure of chemical notions and relations in entirely mathematical language.
From a mathematical point of view chemistry deals with the description and investigation of one exactly defined subset of the set of all functions - the subset of these unique discrete and noninvertible functions, which describes the possible chemical objects.

 Geometric images of simple and complex chemical objects...
The conceptual and mathematical formalism developed in the framework of the project "Geometrization of the fundamentals of chemistry" is totally accorded with both the conceptions of stereochemistry and the use of the graph theory for representing chemical objects and processes in contemporary theoretical chemistry.
In addition, we have formulated mathematically, analized and proved a lot of chemical statements of various logical ranks (definitions, axioms, theorems, corollaries, etc.), which form a substantial part of the future deductive and axiomatic formulations of chemistry.

Supervised research: advising graduate and undergraduate students who are interested in the physical, mathematical and computational aspects of Chemistry and Biochemistry.
I feel that for many courses involving physical aspects of Chemistry, a few introductory lectures on the mathematical tools used in the course of the particular discipline help to organize student's minds and "tune" them into a serious approach to the chosen subject.
I feel that graduate students should learn to be competent in using mathematics as a tool for understanding either a theoretical background of chemical phenomena, or in acquiring experimental techniques for their studies.

 JCE 2002 (79) 1074 [Sep] Survival Guide for Physical Chemistry (by Michelle Francl)
Instructors of physical chemistry face a philosophical dilemma in confronting student fears about the general difficulty of the subject matter and the specific concern about the mathematical rigor of the material.
Survival Guide for Physical Chemistry is a text designed to supplement a standard textbook in the teaching of an undergraduate physical chemistry course by providing practical advice on just about every aspect of a typical lecture and laboratory course.
Indeed, I have dealt with many students who are convinced that their calculus course did not cover the relevant physical chemistry mathematical methods, only to find that they simply did not recognize the technique needed because of the slightly different context.

The International Academy of Mathematical Chemistry (shortly the Academy) is gathering outstanding research scientists who have contributed towards the development and promotion of Mathematics in Chemistry.
Here it is understood that mathematical chemistry applies not only to all areas of chemistry, like the traditional areas: organic chemistry, biochemistry, inorganic chemistry, physical chemistry, analytical chemistry, and polymer chemistry, but also to various novel adjuncts such as material science and chemo-informatics.
We are particularly focusing on use of Discrete Mathematics in Chemistry, in view that in general chemists are less familiar with use of Graph Theory, Topology and Combinatorics in chemistry.
