The formal link between the linear combination of atomic orbitals approach to density functional theory and two-center Slater-Koster tight-binding models is used to derive an orthogonal $d$-band tight-binding model for iron with only two…
Dynamic density functional theory (DDFT) is a promising approach for predicting the structural evolution of a drying suspension containing one or more types of colloidal particles. The assumed free-energy functional is a key component of…
Interactions between negatively charged aluminosilicate species and positively charged metal cations are critical to many important engineering processes and applications, including sustainable cements and aluminosilicate glasses. In an…
Density Functional Theory (DFT) calculations show a weak interaction between hydrogen and helium in iron, in contrast to previous reports of a strong trapping of hydrogen at helium. The strong preference of He and H to occupy regions with…
The AB s-valent dimer is used to analyse bond formation and charge transfer within the tight-binding (TB) approximation. In this way a physical interpretation of the electronic structure and binding energy within density functional theory…

Understanding the properties of warm dense hydrogen is of key importance for the modeling of compact astrophysical objects and to understand and further optimize inertial confinement fusion (ICF) applications. The work horse of warm dense…
In order to obtain a reasonably accurate and easily implemented approach to many-electron calculations, we will develop a new Density Functional Theory (DFT). Specifically, we derive an approximation to electron density, the first term of…
We proved earlier that in the strained monoatomic chains with Lennard-Jones potential there can exist an equilibrium static bi-structure, which corresponds to N - 1 equal short interatomic bonds and one long bond with inversion in its…

We consider a system of particles interacting via a purely repulsive, soft-core potential recently introduced to model effective pair interactions between dendrimers, which is expected to lead to the formation of crystals with multiple…
