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…
The key element in time-dependent density functional theory is the one-to-one correspondence between the one-particle density and the external potential. In most approaches this mapping is transformed into a certain type of Sturm-Liouville…
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…
The exact universal functional of integer charge leads to an extension to fractional charge asymptotically when it is applied to a system made of asymptotically separated densities. The extended functional is asymptotically local and is…

In [Phys. Rev. Lett. 127, 023001 (2021)] a reduced density matrix functional theory (RDMFT) has been proposed for calculating energies of selected eigenstates of interacting many-fermion systems. Here, we develop a solid foundation for this…
A fundamental assumption of the dynamical density functional theory (DDFT) of colloidal systems is that a grand-canonical free energy functional may be employed to generate the thermodynamic driving forces. Using one-dimensional hard-rods…
