The Kohn-Sham iteration of generalized density-functional theory on Banach spaces with Moreau-Yosida regularized universal Lieb functional and an adaptive damping step is shown to converge to the correct ground-state density. This result…
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…
Within density-functional theory, Moreau-Yosida regularization enables both a reformulation of the theory and a mathematically well-defined definition of the Kohn-Sham approach. It is further employed in density-potential inversion schemes…
Recent work has established Moreau-Yosida regularization as a mathematical tool to achieve rigorous functional differentiability in density-functional theory. In this article, we extend this tool to paramagnetic current-density-functional…
A detailed account of the Kohn-Sham algorithm from quantum chemistry, formulated rigorously in the very general setting of convex analysis on Banach spaces, is given here. Starting from a Levy-Lieb-type functional, its convex and lower…
Moreau-Yosida regularization is introduced into the framework of exact DFT. Moreau-Yosida regularization is a lossless operation on lower semicontinuous proper convex functions over separable Hilbert spaces, and when applied to the…
Exact density-functional theory is reconstructed here from its convex variational structure as two parallel exact ensemble hierarchies: an interacting hierarchy rooted in Lieb's ensemble formulation and a noninteracting hierarchy rooted in…
Density functional theory is one of the most efficient and widely used computational methods of quantum mechanics, especially in fields such as solid state physics and quantum chemistry. From the theoretical perspecive, its central object…
A detailed convex analysis-based formulation of density-functional theory for periodic systems in arbitrary dimensions is presented. The electron-electron interaction is taken to be of Yukawa type, harmonising with underlying function…
The Hohenberg-Kohn theorem and Kohn-Sham procedure are extended to functionals of the localized intrinsic density of a self-bound system such as a nucleus. After defining the intrinsic-density functional, we modify the usual Kohn-Sham…
In the present work, we introduce a Self-Consistent Density-Functional Embedding technique, which leaves the realm of standard energy-functional approaches in Density Functional Theory and targets directly the density-to-potential mapping…
As a proof of principle, self-consistent Kohn--Sham calculations are performed with the exact exchange-correlation functional. Finding the exact functional for even one trial density requires solving the interacting Schr\"odinger equation…
We analyze the inverse problem of Density Functional Theory using a regularized variational method. First, we show that given $k$ and a target density $\rho$, there exist potentials having $k^{\text{th}}$ bound mixed states which densities…
A bivariate perspective on Kohn-Sham density functional theory is proposed, treating potential and density as simultaneous independent variables, and used to make fruitful connection between Lieb's rigorous foundational framework and…
The universal density functional $F$ of density-functional theory is a complicated and ill-behaved function of the density-in particular, $F$ is not differentiable, making many formal manipulations more complicated. Whilst $F$ has been well…
It is well known that the self-consistent field (SCF) iteration for solving the Kohn-Sham (KS) equation often fails to converge, yet there is no clear explanation. In this paper, we investigate the SCF iteration from the perspective of…
Kohn-Sham (KS) formalism of Density Functional Theory is modified to include the systems with strong non-dynamic electron correlation. Unlike in extended KS and broken symmetry unrestricted KS formalisms, cases of both singlet-triplet and…
A long-standing puzzle in density-functional theory is the issue of the long-range behavior of the Kohn-Sham exchange-correlation potential at metal surfaces. As an important step towards its solution, it is proved here, through a rigurouos…
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 present a real-space formulation for coarse-graining Kohn-Sham Density Functional Theory that significantly speeds up the analysis of material defects without appreciable loss of accuracy. The approximation scheme consists of two steps.…
