Density functional theory stems from the Hohenberg-Kohn-Sham-Mermin (HKSM) theorem in the grand canonical ensemble (GCE). However, as recent work shows, although its extension to the canonical ensemble (CE) is not straightforward, work in…
Hubbard-corrected density functional theory, denoted by DFT+U method, was developed to enable correct prediction of insulating properties for strongly-correlated electron systems. UO$_2$ is an example having O-$2p$, U-$6d$, and U-$5f$…
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…
Density functional theory can be extended to excited states by means of a unified variational approach for passive state ensembles. This extension overcomes the restriction of the typical density functional approach to ground states, and…
The balance between localised and delocalised electron distribution in the N,N'-dimethylpiperazine (DMP) molecule in the 3s Rydberg excited state and in the fully ionised DMP$^+$ provides a valuable test of density functionals, in…
Most applications of time-dependent density-functional theory (TDDFT) use the adiabatic local-density approximation (ALDA) for the dynamical exchange-correlation potential Vxc(r,t). An exact (i.e., nonadiabatic) extension of the…
We analytically construct the wave function that, for a given initial state, produces a prescribed density for a quantum ring with two non-interacting particles in a singlet state. In this case the initial state is completely determined by…

Gross-Oliveira-Kohn density-functional theory (GOK-DFT) is an extension of DFT to excited states where the basic variable is the ensemble density, i.e. the weighted sum of ground- and excited-state densities. The ensemble energy (i.e. the…
