Localized basis sets in the projector augmented wave formalism allow for computationally efficient calculations within density functional theory (DFT). However, achieving high numerical accuracy requires an extensive basis set, which also…
An accurate description of electron correlation energies in molecules requires either basis set extrapolation or the use of explicitly-correlated wave functions that address the deficiencies of standard determinantal expansions at short…
To solve the Kohn-Sham equation within the framework of density functional theory, we develop a scheme to construct numerical atomic orbital (NAO) basis sets by contracting truncated spherical waves (TSWs). The contraction minimizes the…
Explicitly correlated methods such as MP2-F12 and CCSD(F12*) exhibit much faster basis set convergence (asymptotically $\propto L^{-7}$, with L the highest angular momentum) than orbital-only approaches. Yet it has been pointed out that…
Locality of compact one-electron orbitals expanded strictly in terms of local subsets of basis functions can be exploited in density functional theory (DFT) to achieve linear growth of computation time with systems size, crucial in…
We propose a unique scheme to construct fully optimized atomic basis sets for density-functional calculations. The shapes of the radial functions are optimized by minimizing the {\it spillage} of the wave functions between the atomic…
Large atomic-orbital (AO) basis sets of at least triple and preferably quadruple-zeta (QZ) size are required to adequately converge Kohn-Sham density functional theory (DFT) calculations towards the complete basis set limit. However,…
This work presents new Gaussian single- and double-zeta basis sets optimized for stochastic density functional theory (sDFT) using real-space auxiliary grids. Previous studies showed standard basis sets like STO-3G and 6-31G are sub-optimal…
First-principles density functional theory (DFT) codes which employ a localized basis offer advantages over those which use plane-wave bases, such as better scaling with system size and better suitability to low-dimensional systems. The…
Understanding, optimizing, and controlling the optical absorption process, exciton gemination, and electron-hole separation and conduction in low dimensional systems is a fundamental problem in materials science. However, robust and…

To perform efficient many-body calculations in the framework of the exact diagonalization of the Hamiltonian one needs an appropriately tailored Fock basis built from the single-particle orbitals. The simplest way to compose the basis is to…
We present a parametrization within a simplified LCAO model (a type of Hueckel model) for the description of $\pi$ molecular orbitals in organic molecules containing $\pi$-bonds between carbon, nitrogen, or oxygen atoms with $sp^2$…
Extremely large antenna arrays envisioned for 6G incurs near-field effect, where steering vector depends on angles and range simultaneously. Polar-domain near-field codebooks can focus energy accurately but incur extra two-dimensional…
