We study Density Functional Theory models for systems which are translationally invariant in some directions, such as a homogeneous 2-d slab in the 3-d space. We show how the different terms of the energy are modified and we derive reduced…

We perform model calculations for a stretched LiF molecule, demonstrating that nonadiabatic charge transfer effects can be accurately and seamlessly described within a density functional framework. In alkali halides like LiF, there is an…
How does charge density constrain many-body wavefunctions in nature? The Hohenberg-Kohn theorem for non-relativistic, interacting many-body Schr\"odinger systems is well-known and was proved using \emph{reductio-ad-absurdum}; however, the…
The ground-state properties of superfluid nuclear systems with ^1S_0 pairing are studied within a local energy-density functional (LEDF) approach. A new form of the LEDF is proposed with a volume part which fits the Friedman- Pandharipande…
We present a density functional scheme for calculating the pair density (PD) by means of the correlated wave function. This scheme is free from both of problems related to PD functional theory, i.e., (a) the need to constrain the…
The derivative discontinuity of the exchange-correlation functional of density-functional theory is cast as the difference of two types of electron affinities. We show that standard Kohn-Sham calculations can be used to calculate both…
Most realistic calculations of moderately correlated materials begin with a ground-state density functional theory (DFT) calculation. While Kohn-Sham DFT is used in about 40,000 scientific papers each year, the fundamental underpinnings are…
The exact Kohn-Sham iteration of generalized density-functional theory in finite dimensions witha Moreau-Yosida regularized universal Lieb functional and an adaptive damping step is shown toconverge to the correct ground-state density.
We derive explicit expressions for dynamical correlations of the field and density operators in the Lieb-Liniger model, within an arbitrary eigenstate with a small particle density ${\cal D}$. They are valid for all space and time and any…

An extended electron model fully recovers many of the experimental results of quantum mechanics while it avoids many of the pitfalls and remains generally free of paradoxes. The formulation of the many-body electronic problem here resembles…
