In electronic structure calculations the optimized effective potential (OEP) is a method that treats exchange interactions exactly using a local potential within density-functional theory (DFT). We present a method using density functional…

The optimized effective potential (OEP) is the exact Kohn-Sham potential for explicitly orbital-dependent energy functionals, e.g., the exact exchange energy. We give a proof for the OEP equation which does not depend on the chain rule for…

The random phase approximation (RPA) for the electron correlation energy, combined with the exact-exchange energy, represents the state-of-the-art exchange-correlation functional within density-functional theory (DFT). However, the standard…

The Kohn-Sham (KS) system is an auxiliary system whose effective potential is unknown in most cases. It is in principle determined by the ground state density, and it has been found numerically for some low-dimensional systems by inverting…

The Exact-Exchange (EXX) Kohn-Sham formalism, which treats exchange interactions exactly within density-functional theory, is applied to one-dimensional periodic systems. The underlying implementation does not rely on specific symmetries of…

Various orbital-dependent exchange-only potentials are studied which exhibit correct long-range asymptotic behaviour. We present the first application of these potentials for polymers and by one of these potentials for molecules. Kohn-Sham…

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…

For exchange-correlation functionals that depend explicitly on the Kohn-Sham orbitals, the potential $V_{\mathrm{xc}\sigma}(\re)$ must be obtained as the solution of the optimized effective potential (OEP) integral equation. This is very…

Kohn-Sham (KS) density functional theory (DFT) is a very efficient method for calculating various properties of solids as, for instance, the total energy, the electron density, or the electronic band structure. The KS-DFT method leads to…

We present a real-space method for computing the random phase approximation (RPA) correlation energy within Kohn-Sham density functional theory, leveraging the low-rank nature of the frequency-dependent density response operator. In…

Following Hollins et al. [J. Phys.: Condens. Matter 29, 04LT01 (2017)], we invert the electronic ground state densities for various semiconducting and insulating solids calculated using several density functional approximations within the…

An interesting fundamental problem in density-functional theory of electronic structure of matter is to construct the exact Kohn-Sham (KS) potential for a given density. The exact potential can then be used to assess the accuracy of…

Ensemble Density Functional Theory (EDFT) is a promising extension to Density Functional Theory (DFT) for calculating excited states. While Kohn-Sham eigenvalue differences underestimate gaps, EDFT has been shown to provide more accurate…

Atomic effective pseudopotentials enable atomistic calculations at the level of accuracy of density functional theory for semiconductor nanostructures with up to fifty thousand atoms. Since they are directly derived from ab-initio…

The Kohn-Sham orbital kinetic energy density $\tau_\sigma(\vec{r}) = \sum_{i} w_{i\sigma} \big|\nabla \psi_{i\sigma}(\vec{r}) \big|^2$ is one fundamental quantity for constructing meta-generalized gradient approximations (meta-GGA) for use…

We study static correlation and delocalisation errors and show that even methods with good energies can yield significant delocalization errors that affect the density, leading to large errors in predicting {\em e.g.} dipole moments. We…

The standard way to calculate the Kohn-Sham orbitals utilizes an approximation of the potential. The approximation consists in a projection of the potential into a finite subspace of basis functions. The orbitals, calculated with the…

We use the exact strong-interaction limit of the Hohenberg-Kohn energy density functional to construct an approximation for the exchange-correlation term of the Kohn-Sham approach. The resulting exchange-correlation potential is able to…

The electronic structure of noble-gas solids is calculated within density functional theory's exact-exchange method (EXX) and compared with the results from the local-density approximation (LDA). It is shown that the EXX method does not…

We construct exact Kohn-Sham potentials for the ensemble density-functional theory (EDFT) from the ground and excited states of helium. The exchange-correlation (XC) potential is compared with the quasi-local-density approximation and both…
