We present a simple method to calculate systematic lower bounds for the ground-state energy density of a 1D quantum spin system.
The insulating state of matter is characterized by the excitation spectrum, but also by qualitative features of the electronic ground state. The insulating ground wavefunction in fact: (i) displays vanishing dc conductivity; (ii) sustains…
A new class of methods is introduced for solving the Kohn-Sham equations of density functional theory, based on constructing a mapping dynamically between the Kohn-Sham system and an auxiliary system. The resulting auxiliary density…
We formulate a set of equations that facilitate an exact numerical solution of the Kohn-Sham potential for a finite Hubbard chain with nearest neighbour hopping and arbitrary site potentials. The approach relies on a mapping of the…
Based on the work of Gorling and that of Levy and Nagy, density-functional formalism for many Fermionic excited-states is explored through a careful and rigorous analysis of the excited-state density to external potential mapping. It is…
The density functional theory is extended to account for self-bound systems. To this end the Hohenberg-Kohn theorem is formulated for the intrinsic density and a Kohn-Sham like procedure for an $N$--body system is derived using the…
We introduced a new electron density n({\epsilon}) by projecting the spatial electron density n(r) onto the energy coordinate {\epsilon} defined with the external potential \upsion (r) of interest. Then, a density functional theory (DFT)…
Some theorems on derivatives of the Coulomb density functional with respect to the coupling constant $\lambda$ are given. Consider an electron density $n_{GS}({\bf r})$ given by a ground state. A model Fermion system with the reduced…
A sufficiently damped iteration of the Kohn-Sham equations with the exact functional is proven to always converge to the true ground-state density, regardless of the initial density or the strength of electron correlation, for finite…
A introduction into density-functional theory and electronic structure methods is given, that aims at providing an intuitive understanding of the underlying concepts for the novice as well as an entry point towards the more advanced…
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…
The treatment of degenerate states within Kohn-Sham density functional theory (KS-DFT) is a problem of longstanding interest. We propose a solution to this mapping from the interacting degenerate system to that of the noninteracting fermion…
By extrapolating the energies of non-relativistic atoms and their ions with up to 3000 electrons within Kohn-Sham density functional theory, we find that the ionization potential remains finite and increases across a row, even as…
The derivative discontinuity of the exchange-correlation functional of density-functional theory is cast as the difference of two types of electron affinities. We show that standard Kohn-Sham calculations can be used to calculate both…
To leverage the redundancy between the electronic structure computed at each step of first-principles molecular dynamics, we present a data-driven modeling framework for Kohn-Sham Density Functional Theory that bypasses the explicit…
Quantum dots with conduction electrons or holes originating from several bands are considered. We assume the particles are confined in a harmonic potential and assume the electrons (or holes) belonging to different bands to be different…
We present a density difference based analysis for a range of orbital--dependent Kohn--Sham functionals. Results for atoms, some members of the neon isoelectronic series and small molecules are reported and compared with ab initio…
In approximate Kohn-Sham density-functional theory, self-interaction manifests itself as the dependence of the energy of an orbital on its fractional occupation. This unphysical behavior translates into qualitative and quantitative errors…
We employ the density functional Kohn-Sham method in the local spin-density approximation to study the electronic structure and magnetism of quasi one-dimensional periodic arrays of few-electron quantum dots. At small values of the lattice…
It is known that the asymptotic decay of the electron density $n(\br)$ outside a molecule is informative about its first ionization potential $I_0$, $n(|\br|\to\infty) \sim \text{exp}(-2\sqrt{2I_0}\,r)$. This dictates the orbital energy of…
