The physics of topological singularities, namely exceptional points (EPs), has been a key to wide range of intriguing and unique physical effects in non-Hermitian systems. In this context, the mutual interactions among four coupled states…

Large biomolecular systems, whose function may involve thousands of atoms, cannot easily be addressed with parameter-free density functional theory (DFT) calculations. Until recently a central problem was that such systems possess an…

We have revisited the MOBH35 (Metal-Organic Barrier Heights, 35 reactions) benchmark [Iron, M. A.; Janes, T. J. Phys. Chem. A 2019, 123 (17), 3761-3781; ibid. 2019, 123, 6379-6380] for realistic organometallic catalytic reactions, using…

We calculate Heisenberg-type magnetic exchange interactions for SrMnO$_3$ under isotropic volume expansion using an approach that is based on total energy variations due to infinitesimal spin rotations around a given reference state. Our…

The combination of density functional theory (DFT) with a multiconfigurational wave function is an efficient way to include dynamical correlation in calculations with multiconfiguration self-consistent field wave functions. These methods…

The structural and magnetic properties of spinel compounds $CoB_2O_4$ (B=Cr,Mn and Fe) are studied using the DFT+U method and generalized gradient approximation (GGA). We concentrate on understanding the trends in the properties of these…

A new potential energy surface (PES) and dynamical study are presented of the reactive process between H2CO + OH towards the formation of HCO + H2O and HCOOH + H. In this work a source of spurious long range interactions in symmetry adapted…

For more than three decades, nearly free electron elemental metals have been a topic of debate because the computed bandwidths are significantly wider in the local density approximation to density-functional theory (DFT) than indicated by…

Distortions of the oxygen octahedra influence the fundamental electronic structure of perovskite oxides, such as their bandwidth and exchange interactions. Utilizing a fully ab-initio methodology based on density functional theory plus…

Noncollinear (NC) magnetism and spin-orbit coupling (SOC) are indispensable for predictive ab initio materials simulations with pronounced relativistic effects and magnetic frustration, yet they significantly increase the cost of…

The general procedure underlying Hartree-Fock and Kohn-Sham density functional theory calculations consists in optimizing orbitals for a self-consistent solution of the Roothaan-Hall equations in an iterative process. It is often ignored…

Actinide-containing complexes present formidable challenges for electronic structure methods due to the large number of degenerate or quasi-degenerate electronic states arising from partially occupied 5f and 6d shells. Conventional…

Due to efficient scaling with electron number N, density functional theory (DFT) is widely used for studies of large molecules and solids. Restriction of an exact mean-field theory to local potential functions has recently been questioned.…

Near-field radiative heat transfer (NFRHT) between irregularly shaped dielectric particles made of SiO2 and morphology characterized by Gaussian random spheres is studied. Particles are modeled using the discrete system Green's function…
