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…

Using dynamical density functional theory (DDFT), we theoretically study Brownian self-diffusion and structural relaxation of hard disks and compare to experimental results on quasi two-dimensional colloidal hard spheres. To this end, we…

The strong boundary normalized condition of wavefunction for fully occupied semicore 3d orbitals leads the linear response DFT+U on such metal oxide to have an insurmountable obstacle in Hubbard U determination. We treated the orbital…

In contrast to the original Kohn-Sham (KS) formalism, we propose a density functional theory (DFT) with fractional orbital occupations for the study of ground states of many-electron systems, wherein strong static correlation is shown to be…

An oversight of several previous results from local density approximation (LDA) calculations appear to have led to an incomplete, and hence misleading, characterization of the capability of density functional theory (DFT) to describe…

The combination of density functional theory and single-site dynamical mean-field theory, using both Hartree and full continuous-time quantum Monte Carlo impurity solvers, is used to study the metal-insulator phase diagram of perovskite…

Quantum mechanical methods based on the density functional theory (DFT) offer a realistic possibility of first-principles design of organic donor-acceptor systems and engineered band-gap materials. This promise is contingent upon the…

Here, we report orbital-free density-functional theory (OF DFT) molecular dynamics simulations of the displacement cascade in aluminum. The electronic effect is our main concern. The displacement threshold energies are calculated using OF…

In a recent communication, Weber and co-workers presented a surprising study on charge-localization effects in the N,N'-dimethylpiperazine (DMP+) diamine cation to provide a stringent test of density functional theory (DFT) methods. Within…

We use a combination of density functional theory (DFT) and dynamical mean-field theory (DMFT) to investigate the potential emergence of a charge-disproportionated insulating phase in SrCrO$_{3}$, whereby the Cr cations disproportionate…

The stationary functional of the all-electron density functional plus dynamical mean field theory (DFT+DMFT) formalism to perform free energy calculations and structural relaxations is implemented for the first time. Here, the first order…

We establish the global well-posedness of overdamped dynamic density functional theory (DDFT): a nonlinear, nonlocal integro-partial differential equation used in statistical mechanical models of colloidal fluids, and other applications…

It is believed that the density functional theory (DFT) describes most elements with s, p and d orbitals very well, except some materials that having strongly localized and correlated valence electrons. In this work, we find that the widely…

Orbital-free density functional theory (OF-DFT) provides an alternative approach for calculating the molecular electronic energy, relying solely on the electron density. In OF-DFT, both the ground-state density is optimized variationally to…

The practical utility of M{\o}ller-Plesset (MP) perturbation theory is severely constrained by the use of Hartree-Fock (HF) orbitals. It has recently been shown that use of regularized orbital-optimized MP2 orbitals and scaling of MP3…

We shed light on the interplay between structure and many-body effects relevant for itinerant ferromagnetism in LaAlO$_3$/SrTiO$_3$ heterostructures. The realistic correlated electronic structure is studied by means of the (spin-polarized)…

Density functional theory (DFT) provides convenient electronic structure methods for the study of molecular systems and materials. Regular Kohn-Sham DFT calculations rely on unitary transformations to determine the ground-state electronic…

Oxygen-deficient TiO$_2$ in the rutile structure as well as the Ti$_3$O$_5$ Magn{\'e}li phase is investigated within the charge self-consistent combination of density functional theory (DFT) with dynamical mean-field theory (DMFT). It is…

The Hohenberg-Kohn theorem of density functional theory (DFT) for the case of electrons interacting with an external magnetic field (that couples to spin only) is examined in more detail than previously. A unexpected generalization is…

Dynamical density functional theory (DDFT) is a powerful variational framework to study the nonequilibrium properties of colloids by only considering a time-dependent one-body number density. Despite the large number of recent successes,…
