Microscopic input to a universal nuclear energy density functional can be provided through the density matrix expansion (DME), which has recently been revived and improved. Several DME implementation strategies are tested for neutron drop…
We critically reexamine the problem of interatomic exchange interactions, which describe the total energy change caused by infinitesimal rotations of spins near some equilibrium state. For the small variations, such interactions can be…
We introduce new and robust decompositions of mean-field Hartree-Fock (HF) and Kohn-Sham density functional theory (KS-DFT) relying on the use of localized molecular orbitals and physically sound charge population protocols. The new…
We prove the existence of minimizers for Hartree-Fock-Bogoliubov (HFB) energy functionals with attractive two-body interactions given by Newtonian gravity. This class of HFB functionals serves as model problem for self-gravitating…
We present a density functional theory (DFT) for lattice models with local electron-electron (e-e) and electron-phonon (e-ph) interactions. Exchange-correlation potentials are derived via dynamical mean field theory for the…
We apply reduced density-matrix functional theory to the parabolically confined quantum Hall droplet in the spin-frozen strong magnetic field regime. One-body reduced density matrix functional method performs remarkably well in obtaining…
Density functionals with a range-separated treatment of the exchange energy are known to improve upon their semilocal forerunners and fixed-fraction hybrids. The conversion of a given semilocal functional into its short-range analog is not…
We propose a novel scheme to bring reduced density matrix functional theory (RDMFT) into the realm of density functional theory (DFT) that preserves the accurate density functional description at equilibrium, while incorporating accurately…
In this work we explore the performance of approximations to electron correlation in reduced density-matrix functional theory (RDMFT) and of approximations to the observables calculated within this theory. Our analysis focuses on the…
In this paper, we investigate the energy minimization model of the ensemble Kohn-Sham density functional theory for metallic systems, in which a pseudo-eigenvalue matrix and a general smearing approach are involved. We study the invariance…
A Density Matrix Functional theory is constructed semi-empirically for the two-level Lipkin model. This theory, based on natural orbitals and occupation numbers, is shown to provide a good description for the ground state energy of the…
The density matrix, i.e. the Fourier transform of the momentum distribution, is obtained analytically for all magnetization of the Gutzwiller wave function in one dimension with exclusion of double occupancy per site. The present result…
The celebrated work of Onsager on hard particle systems, based on the truncated second order virial expansion, is valid at relatively low volume fractions for large aspect ratio particles. While it predicts the isotropic-nematic phase…
The semilocal meta generalized gradient approximation (MGGA) for the exchange-correlation functional of Kohn-Sham (KS) density functional theory can yield accurate ground-state energies simultaneously for atoms, molecules, surfaces, and…
An exchange-correlation energy functional $ E_{\mathrm xc} $ and the resultant exchange-correlation potential $ v_{\mathrm xc}({\bf r}) $ in density-functional theory are proposed using orbital-dependent coupling-constant-averaged pair…
The density functional theory (DFT) interaction energy of a dimer is rigorously derived from the monomer densities. To this end, the supermolecular energy bifunctional is formulated in terms of mutually orthogonal sets of orbitals of the…
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…
As a new approach to efficiently describe correlation effects in the relativistic quantum world we propose to consider reduced density matrix functional theory, where the key quantity is the first-order reduced density matrix (1-RDM). In…
We derive equations of motion for the reduced density matrix of a molecular system which undergoes energy transfer dynamics competing with fast internal conversion channels. Environmental degrees of freedom of such a system have no time to…
Development of the electronic kinetic-energy density functional is a subject of major interest in theoretical physics and chemistry. In this work, the nonlocal kinetic-energy functional is developed in terms of the response function for the…
