When a fluid is subject to an external field, as is the case near an interface or under spatial confinement, then the density becomes spatially inhomogeneous. Although the one-body density provides much useful information, a higher level of…
We prove a global well-posedness and regularity result of strong solutions to a slightly modified Michelson-Sivashinsky equation in any spatial dimension and in the absence of physical boundaries. Local-in-time well-posedness (and…
For a topological space $X$ a topological contraction on $X$ is a closed mapping $f:X\to X$ such that for every open cover of $X$ there is a positive integer $n$ such that the image of the space $X$ via the $n$th iteration of $f$ is a…
Given the time-evolution of an electron charge density, the local potential in Kohn-Sham time-dependent density functional theory (KS-TDDFT) can be modeled as a sum of instantaneous and dynamic contributions by assuming a certain form of…
We compute the renormalized two-point functions of density, divergence and vorticity of the velocity in the Effective Field Theory of Large Scale Structures. Because of momentum and mass conservation, the corrections from short scales to…
We reexamine the recently introduced basis-set correction theory based on density-functional theory consisting in correcting the basis-set incompleteness error of wave-function methods using a density functional. We use a one-dimensional…

A formulation of the density functional theory is constructed on the foundations of entropic inference. The theory is introduced as an application of maximum entropy for inhomogeneous fluids in thermal equilibrium. It is shown that entropic…
We study existence of global solutions and finite time blow-up of solutions to the Cauchy problem for the porous medium equation with a variable density $\rho(x)$ and a power-like reaction term $\rho(x) u^p$ with $p>1$; this is a…
The Hohenberg-Kohn theorem of the density functional theory is extended by modifying the Levy constrained-search formulation. The new theorem allows us to choose arbitrary physical quantities as the basic variables which determine the…
We consider a system of interacting particles subjected to Langevin inertial dynamics and derive the governing time-dependent equation for the one-body density. We show that, after suitable truncations of the…
In the past decades many density-functional theory methods and codes adopting periodic boundary conditions have been developed and are now extensively used in condensed matter physics and materials science research. Only in 2016, however,…
We establish the following universality property in high dimensions: Let $X$ be a random vector with density in $\mathbb{R}^n$. The density function can be arbitrary. We show that there exists a fixed unit vector $\theta \in \mathbb{R}^n$…
We study a McKendrick-von Foerster type equation with renewal. This model is represented by a single equation which describes one species which produces young individuals. The renewal condition is linear, but takes into account some history…
We construct a density-functional formalism adapted to uniform external magnetic fields that is intermediate between conventional Density Functional Theory and Current-Density Functional Theory (CDFT). In the intermediate theory, which we…
We establish necessary and sufficient conditions for the N-representability of the universal one-electron reduced density matrix functional. Functionals satisfying these conditions are guaranteed to yield variational upper bounds on the…
This paper studies the properties of weak solutions to a class of space-time fractional parabolic-elliptic Keller-Segel equations with logistic source terms in $\mathbb{R}^{n}$, $n\geq 2$. The global existence and $L^{\infty}$-bound of weak…
Density Functional Theory (DFT) is one of the most used ab initio theoretical frameworks in materials science. It derives the ground state properties of a multi-atomic ensemble directly from the computation of its one-particle density \nr…
Density Functional Theory (DFT) is one of the most widely used methods for "ab initio" calculations of the structure of atoms, molecules, crystals, surfaces, and their interactions. Unfortunately, the customary introduction to DFT is often…
