The full three dimensional dispersion of the pi-bands, Fermi velocities and effective masses are measured with angle resolved photoemission spectroscopy and compared to first-principles calculations. The band structure by density-functional…
These are introductory lectures to some aspects of the physics of strongly correlated electron systems. I first explain the main reasons for strong correlations in several classes of materials. The basic principles of dynamical mean-field…
It is known that the separation of electrons into spinons and chargons, the spin-charge separation, plays a decisive role when describing strongly correlated density distributions in one dimension. In this manuscript, we extend the…
It has been known for some time that the exchange-correlation potential in time-dependent density functional theory is an intrinsically nonlocal functional of the density as soon as one goes beyond the adiabatic approximation. In this paper…
A widely used approximation to the exchange-correlation functional in density functional theory is the local density approximation (LDA), typically derived from the properties of the homogeneous electron gas (HEG). We previously introduced…
In the framework of density functional theory a formalism to describe electronic transport in the steady state is proposed which uses the density on the junction and the {\em steady current} as basic variables. We prove that, in a finite…
Density functional approximations to the exchange-correlation energy of Kohn-Sham theory, such as the local density approximation and generalized gradient approximations, lack the well-known integer discontinuity, a feature that is critical…
Commonly used semilocal density functional approximations for the exchange-correlation energy fail badly when the true two dimensional limit is approached. We show, using a quasi-two-dimensional uniform electron gas in the infinite barrier…
We suggest to include the density of electron charge explicitly in the electron potential of density functional theory, rather than implicitly via exchange-correlation functionals. The advantages of the approach are conceptual and…
We introduce a new paradigm for finite and infinite strict-one-dimensional uniform electron gases. In this model, $n$ electrons are confined to a ring and interact via a bare Coulomb operator. In the high-density limit (small-$r_s$, where…
A new variational method for studying the equilibrium states of an interacting particles system has been proposed. The statistical description of the system is realized by means of a density matrix. This method is used for description of…
A recently developed quasi two-dimensional exact-exchange formalism within the framework of Density Functional Theory has been applied to a strongly inhomogeneous interacting electron gas, and the results were compared with state-of-the-art…
In the exact Kohn-Sham density-functional theory (DFT), the total energy versus the number of electrons is a series of linear segments between integer points. However, commonly used approximate density functionals produce total energies…
I construct a minimal formalism to describe transport of non separable correlations arising when a superconductor is in contact with several electrodes (being ferromagnetic or normal metal). Transport theory is expressed in terms of…
We introduce a new form of density functional theory for the {\em ab initio} description of electronic systems in contact with a molecular liquid environment. This theory rigorously joins an electron density-functional for the electrons of…
We extend the density-functional theory for superconductors (SCDFT) to take account of the dynamical structure of the screened Coulomb interaction. We construct an exchange-correlation kernel in the SCDFT gap equation on the basis of the…
We propose a practical approximation to the exchange-correlation functional of (time-dependent) density functional theory for many-electron systems coupled to photons. The (time non-local) optimized effective potential (OEP) equation for…
In this work we have studied a new functional for the correlation energy obtained from the exact-exchange (EXX) approximation within time-dependent density functional theory (TDDFT). Correlation energies have been calculated for a number of…
We propose a systematic and constructive way to determine the exchange-correlation potentials of density-functional theories including vector potentials. The approach does not rely on energy or action functionals. Instead it is based on…
Density-functional theory requires ever better exchange-correlation (xc) functionals for the ever more precise description of many-body effects on electronic structure. Universal constraints on the xc energy are important ingredients in the…
