Spectral Density Functionals for Electronic Structure Calculations
Strongly Correlated Electrons
2007-05-23 v1
Abstract
We introduce a functional of the local spectral electron density which can be used to to compute the total energy and the local spectral function of strongly-correlated materials. We illustrate the applicability of the method by using as an example the long-standing problem of the electronic structure of metallic plutonium.
