Subject: Calculations on quantum dots?

A very general question:
Have people calculated the electronic states of the interacting 
electrons in a quantum dot from first principles. Or, if there have been 
no ab initio calculations, other more "approximate" methods would be 
interesting. A citation search throws up a lot of stuff, which as an 
outsider I cannot prune down.
So my question is; what are the key papers and who are the key people, 
or has the area been reviewed? Any suggestions would be of great help, 
I will summarise, if asked.
