It is well known that the self-consistent field (SCF) iteration for solving the Kohn-Sham (KS) equation often fails to converge, yet there is no clear explanation. In this paper, we investigate the SCF iteration from the perspective of…

Electrons in zero external magnetic field can be studied with density functional theory (DFT) or with spin-DFT (SDFT). The latter is normally used for open shell systems because its approximations appear to model better the exchange and…

The Kohn-Sham (KS) equations determine, in a self-consistent way, the particle density of an interacting fermion system at thermal equilibrium. We consider a situation when the KS equations are known to have a unique solution at high…

A system of electrons in a local or nonlocal external potential can be studied with 1-matrix functional theory (1MFT), which is similar to density functional theory (DFT) but takes the one-particle reduced density matrix (1-matrix) instead…
