A previously proposed non-canonical coupled-perturbed Kohn-Sham density functional theory (KS-DFT)/Hartree-Fock (HF) treatment for spin-orbit coupling is here generalized to infinite periodic systems. The scalar-relativistic periodic…

We show that the Kohn-Sham positive-definite kinetic energy (KE) density significantly differs from the von Weizs\"acker (VW) one at the nuclear cusp as well as in the asymptotic region. At the nuclear cusp, the VW functional is shown to be…
