As a first step towards a microscopic understanding of the effective interaction between colloidal particles suspended in a solvent we study the wetting behavior of one-component fluids at spheres and fibers. We describe these phenomena…
Which density functional is the "best" for structure simulations of a particular material? A concise, first principles, approach to answer this question is presented. The random phase approximation (RPA)--- an accurate many body theory---…
Aided by a neural network representation of the density functional theory (DFT) potential energy landscape of water in the RPBE approximation corrected for dispersion, we calculate several structural and thermodynamic properties of its…
We introduce a density functional formalism to study the ground-state properties of strongly-correlated dipolar and ionic ultracold bosonic and fermionic gases, based on the self-consistent combination of the weak and the strong coupling…
The recent non-local correlation functional of Vydrov and van Voorhis[J. Chem. Phys. 133, 244103 (2010)] is investigated and two new versions of the functional are suggested as being appropriate for describing van der Waals interactions in…
The paper presents new simple sharp bounds for transition density functions for time-homogeneous diffusions processes. The bounds are obtained under mild conditions on the drift and diffusion coefficients, extending and substantially…
Density-functional theory is applied to compute the ground-state energies of quantum hard-sphere solids. The modified weighted-density approximation is used to map both the Bose and the Fermi solid onto a corresponding uniform Bose liquid,…
The electronic, phonon and thermoelectric transport properties of (PbTe)2 layer are systematically investigated by using first-principles pseudopotential method and Boltzmann transport equation. Our calculations demonstrate that there is a…
Simulations of nematic-isotropic transition of liquid crystals in two dimensions are performed using an O(2) vector model characterised by non linear nearest neighbour spin interaction governed by the fourth Legendre polynomial $P\_4$. The…
A closed-form expression of the retarded quadratic density response function of a two dimensional non-relativistic electron gas at zero temperature is written in terms of a non-analytic complex function. A careful analysis is made of the…
Density-functional theory is used to investigate the phase behavior of colloidal binary hard-platelet and hard-rod fluids near a single hard wall or confined in a slit pore. The Zwanzig model, in which the orientations of the particles of…
The recently proposed universal relations between the moments of the polydispersity distributions of a phase-separated weakly polydisperse system are analyzed in detail using the numerical results obtained by solving a simple density…
In this theoretical study, we have derived a simplified analytical expression for the binding energy per nucleon as a function of density and isospin asymmetry within the relativistic mean-field model. We have generated a new…
In the present paper we give a brief summary of some recent theoretical advances in the treatment of inhomogeneous fluids and methods which have applications in the study of dynamical properties of liquids in situations of extreme…
Following a cell-method due to van Kampen for the calculation of a coarse-grained free energy functional for the van der Waals gas, we compute a corresponding entropy functional from microscopic principles. This entropy functional is one of…
The extent of hydrogen coverage of the Si(001)c(4x2) surface in the presence of hydrogen gas has been studied with dispersion corrected density functional theory. Electronic energy contributions are well described using a hybrid functional.…
We describe how density-functional theory, well-known for its many uses in ab initio calculations of electronic structure, can be used to study the ground state of inhomogeneous model Hamiltonians. The basic ideas and concepts are discussed…
We introduce a machine-learning density-functional-theory formalism for the spinless Hubbard model in one dimension at both zero and finite temperature. In the zero-temperature case this establishes a one-to-one relation between the site…
We investigate the equilibrium of a fluid in contact with a solid boundary through a density-functional theory. Depending on the conditions, the fluid can be in one phase, gas or liquid, or two phases, while the wall induces an external…
A lattice-gas model with heterogeneity is developed for the description of fluid condensation in finite sized one-dimensional pores of arbitrary shape. An exact solution of the model is presented for zero-temperature that reproduces the…
