Abstract
This editorial is dedicated to announcing the Special Issue “Theoretical investigation on non-covalent interactions” of Crystals. The Special Issue covers the most recent progress in the rapidly growing fields of data science, artificial intelligence, and quantum and computational chemistry in topics relevant to the problem of theoretical investigation on non-covalent interactions (including, but not limited to, hydrogen, halogen, chalcogen, pnictogen, tetrel, and semi-coordination bonds; agosic and anagosic interactions; stacking, anion-/cation–π interactions; metallophilic interactions, etc.). The main successes of my colleagues and I in the field of fundamental theoretical studies of non-covalent interactions in various chemical compounds over the past year are briefly highlighted.
