We present a new gravitational lens modelling technique designed to model high-resolution interferometric observations with large numbers of visibilities without the need to pre-average the data in time or frequency. We demonstrate the…

This is the second and the final part of the review on density functional theory (DFT), referred to as DFT-II. In the first review, DFT-I, we have discussed wavefunction-based methods, their complexity, and the basic of density functional…

The calculation of the optical properties of hot dense plasmas with a model that has self-consistent plasma physics is a grand challenge for high energy density science. Here we exploit a recently developed electronic structure model that…

New superheavy nuclei are often identified through their characteristic $\alpha$-decay energies, which requires accurate calculations of $Q_{\alpha}$ values. While many $Q_{\alpha}$ predictions are available, little is known about their…

Second-order nonlinear optical interactions, including second harmonic generation (SHG) and sum-frequency generation (SFG), can reveal a wealth of information about chemical, electronic, and vibrational dynamics at the nanoscale. Here, we…

Density functional theory (DFT) is a powerful theoretical tool widely used in such diverse fields as computational condensed matter physics, atomic physics, and quantum chemistry. DFT establishes that a system of $N$ interacting electrons…

With the advent of new synthesis and large-scale production technologies, nanostructured gas-adsorbent materials (GAM) like carbon nanocomposites and metal-organic frameworks are becoming increasingly more influential in our everyday lives.…

As the search space for light dark matter (DM) has shifted to sub-GeV DM candidate particles, increasing attention has turned to solid state detectors built from quantum materials. While traditional solid state detector targets (e.g. Si or…

Quantum computers open up new avenues for modelling the physical properties of materials and molecules. Density Functional Theory (DFT) is the gold standard classical algorithm for predicting these properties, but relies on approximations…

We perform high-throughput density functional theory (DFT) calculations for optoelectronic properties (electronic bandgap and frequency dependent dielectric function) using the OptB88vdW functional (OPT) and the Tran-Blaha modified Becke…

We analyze the methodology and the performance of subsystem density functional theory (DFT) with meta-generalized gradient approximation (meta-GGA) exchange-correlation functionals for non-bonded systems. Meta-GGA functionals depend on the…

Density functional theory (DFT) is used in thousands of papers each year, yet lack of universality reduces DFT's predictive capacity, and functionals may produce energy-density imbalances. The absolute electronegativity (\chi) and hardness…

The ill-posed problem of phase retrieval in optics, using one or more intensity measurements, has a multitude of applications using electromagnetic or matter waves. Many phase retrieval algorithms are computed on pixel arrays using discrete…

Metal-organic frameworks (MOFs) are promising materials for methane capture due to their high surface area and tunable properties. Metal substitution represents a powerful strategy to enhance MOF performance, yet systematic exploration of…

While standard computational protocols for density functional theory (DFT) have universal applicability, differences exist in code implementations. Specific applications require manual parameter optimization, whereas high-throughput…

Within density-functional theory, perturbation theory~(PT) is the state-of-the-art formalism for assessing the response to homogeneous electric fields and the associated material properties, e.g., polarizabilities, dielectric constants, and…

This paper gives a summary of basic concepts of density-functional theory (DFT) and its use in state-of-the-art computations of complex processes in condensed matter physics and materials science. In particular we discuss how microscopic…

Double hybrid density functional theory arguably sits on the seamline between wavefunction methods and DFT: it represents a special case of Rung 5 on the "Jacobs Ladder" of John P. Perdew. For large and chemically diverse benchmarks such as…

We propose a simple scheme to estimate potential energy surface (PES) with which the accuracy can be easily controlled and improved up to the level of the density functional theory (DFT) calculations. It is based on a model selection within…

This thesis is devoted to ab initio calculations of ground and excited state properties of different systems within density functional theory and time dependent density functional theory. From the numerical point of view we implemented an…
