With the development of low order scaling methods for performing Kohn-Sham Density Functional Theory, it is now possible to perform fully quantum mechanical calculations of systems containing tens of thousands of atoms. However, with an…

To explore the applicability of orbital-free density functional theory (OF-DFT) in nuclear physics, we perform a systematic benchmark of 36 one-point kinetic energy density functionals, which are originally developed for electron systems in…

A new approach to large-scale nuclear structure calculations, based on the Density Matrix Renormalization Group (DMRG), is described. The method is tested in the context of a problem involving many identical nucleons constrained to move in…

Density functional theory (DFT) embedding provides a formally exact framework for interfacing correlated wave-function theory (WFT) methods with lower-level descriptions of electronic structure. Here, we report techniques to improve the…

We introduce an algorithm for the solution of a system of radial Schr\"odinger equations describing the inelastic scattering of particles with spin in a partial wave with definite total angular momentum. The system of differential equations…

Density-potential functional theory (DPFT) is an alternative formulation of orbital-free density functional theory that may be suitable for modeling the electronic structure of large systems. To date, DPFT has been applied mainly to quantum…

Total energies of crystal structures can be calculated to high precision using quantum-based density functional theory (DFT) methods, but the calculations can be time consuming and scale badly with system size. Cluster expansions of total…

The augmented Lagrangiam method (ALM), widely used in quantum chemistry constrained optimization problems, is applied in the context of the nuclear Density Functional Theory (DFT) in the self-consistent constrained Skyrme…

We construct a general metric-tensor framework for treating inhomogenous adiabatic deformations applied to crystalline insulators, by deriving an effective time-dependent Schr\"odinger equation in the undistorted frame. The response can be…

Density-functional theory (DFT) has revolutionized computer simulations in chemistry and material science. A faithful implementation of the theory requires self-consistent calculations. However, this effort involves repeatedly diagonalizing…

We formulate the Kohn-Sham density functional theory (KS-DFT) as a statistical theory in which the electron density is deter-mined from an average of correlated stochastic densities in a trace formula. The key idea is that it is sufficient…

The Hartree-Fock-Rothaan equations are solved for He-like ions using the iterative self-consistent method. New complete and orthonormal sets of exponential-type orbitals are employed as the basis. These orbitals satisfy the orthonormality…

Within the Dirac-Brueckner-Hartree-Fock approach, using the Bonn potentials, we investigate the properties of dense, asymmetric nuclear matter and apply it to neutron stars. In the actual calculations of the nucleon self-energies and the…

We develop a discontinuous Galerkin (DG) framework for automatically constructing adaptive basis sets for electronic structure calculations. By allowing basis functions to be discontinuous across element interfaces, our approach supports…

We study the accuracy of Kohn-Sham density functional theory (DFT) for warm- and hot-dense matter (WDM and HDM). Specifically, considering a wide range of systems, we perform accurate ab initio molecular dynamics simulations with…

Within the finite-field Kohn-Sham framework, static electric response properties of diatomic molecules are presented. The electronic energy, dipole moment ({\boldmath$\mu$}), static dipole polarizability ({\boldmath$\alpha$}) and…

In this paper we prove a complete panel of consistency results for the discrete de Rham (DDR) complex introduced in the companion paper [D. A. Di Pietro and J. Droniou, An arbitrary-order discrete de Rham complex on polyhedral meshes. Part…

In this paper, we show how to calculate analytical atomic forces within self-consistent density functional theory + dynamical mean-field theory (DFT+DMFT) approach in the case when ultra-soft or norm-conserving pseudopotentials are used. We…

We review two common numerical schemes for Coulomb potential evaluation that differ only in their radial part of the solutions in the spherical harmonic expansion (SHE). One is based on finite-difference method (FDM) while the other is…

We introduce the Nuclear Electronic All-Particle Density Matrix Renormalization Group (NEAP-DMRG) method for solving the time-independent Schr\"odinger equation simultaneously for electrons and other quantum species. In contrast to already…
