The formalism of density functional theory (DFT) can be easily extended to the time dependent case (TDDFT). However, while in the static case the theory is well established and is expected to be, at least in principle, an exact approach for…

We establish a weighted simultaneous Khintchine-type theorem, both convergence and divergence, for all nondegenerate manifolds, which answers a problem posed in [Math. Ann., 337(4):769-796, 2007]. This extends the main results of [Acta…
