Abstract

The embedding of a quantum mechanical region in a molecular mechanical environment allows a theoretical treatment of very large systems. This article reviews recent methodological developments for such hybrid methods and surveys selected applications including solvation effects, enzymatic reactions, and electronic excitations in condensed phase.
