We prove a unified and general criterion for the uniqueness of critical points of a functional in the presence of constraints such as positivity, boundedness, or fixed mass. Our method relies on convexity properties along suitable paths and…

The blocking probability of a finite-source bufferless queue is a fixed point of the Engset formula, for which we prove existence and uniqueness. Numerically, the literature suggests a fixed point iteration. We show that such an iteration…

Real-time time-dependent density functional theory (TDDFT) is widely considered to be the most accurate available method for calculating electronic stopping powers from first principles, but there have been relatively few assessments of the…

The formalism of density functional theory (DFT) can be easily extended to the time dependent case (TDDFT). However, while in the static case the theory is well established and is expected to be, at least in principle, an exact approach for…

Density functional theory is usually formulated in terms of the density in configuration space. Functionals of the momentum-space density have also been studied, and yet other densities could be considered. We offer a unified view from a…

Floquet formulation of time-dependent density-functional theory is revisited in light of its recent criticism [Maitra and Burke, Chem. Phys. Lett. 359 (2002), 237]. It is shown that Floquet theory is well founded and its criticism has…

Time-dependent density functional theory (TDDFT) is a standard approach for calculating optical excitations of molecules and solids, while ensemble DFT (EDFT) is a promising alternative under development. We introduce ensemble TDDFT…

The Runge-Gross [E. Runge, and E. K. U. Gross, Phys. Rev. Lett., 52, 997 (1984)] action functional of time-dependent density-functional theory leads to a well-known causality paradox, i.e., a perturbation of the electronic density in the…

The density functional theory (DFT) is a remarkably successful theory of electronic structure of matter. At the foundation of this theory lies the Kohn-Sham (KS) equation. In this paper, we describe the long-time behaviour of the…

Fixed point theorems are one of the many tools used to prove existence and uniqueness of differential equations. When the data involved contains products of distributions, some of these tools may not be useful. Thus rises the necessity to…
