The electric double layer (EDL) that forms at the interface between metals and ionic solutions is at the heart of various energy technologies. Recent experimental data have challenged our traditional understanding of the EDL charging…

The total energies and the spin states for atoms and their first ions with Z = 1-86 are calculated within the the local spin-density approximation (LSDA) and the generalized-gradient approximation (GGA) to the exchange-correlation (xc)…

Strong correlation can be essentially captured with multireference wavefunction methods such as complete active space self-consistent field (CASSCF) or density matrix renormalization group (DMRG). Still, an accurate description of the…

We show an $\textit{ab initio}$ construction of the energy density functional (EDF) for electron systems using the functional renormalization group. The correlation energies of the homogeneous electron gas given in our framework reproduce…

Electronic correlations in the ground state of an idealized infinite-layer high-Tc compound are computed using the ab-initio method of local ansatz. Comparisons are made with the local-density approximation (LDA) results, and the…

Based on thermodynamic integration we introduce atoms in molecules (AIM) using the orbital-free framework of alchemical perturbation density functional theory (APDFT). Within APDFT, atomic energies and electron densities in molecules are…

We review our recently developed electronic structure calculation methods used for the dynamics of large-scale solids or liquids with an efficient algorithm for large scale simultaneous linear equations. The electronic structure calculation…

The water/electrode interface under an applied bias potential is a challenging out-of-equilibrium phenomenon, which is difficult to accurately model at the atomic scale. In this study, we employ a combined approach of Density Functional…

Using the cumulant Green's functions method (CGFM), we study the single impurity Anderson model (SIAM). The CGFM starting point is a diagonalization of the SIAM Hamiltonian expressed in a semi-chain form, containing N sites, viz., a…

We review two analytical approaches in Dynamical Mean-Field Theory (DMFT) based on a perturbation theory expansion over the electron hopping to and from the self consistent environment. In the first approach the effective single impurity…

The strong-interaction functionals $W_\infty[n]$ and ${W'}_\infty[n]$ play an important role in the adiabatic-connection method of Density Functional Theory. The strictly-correlated electron approach can be used to exactly compute these…

Density functional theory (DFT) is an exact alternative formulation of quantum mechanics, in which it is possible to calculate the total energy, the spin and the charge density of many-electron systems in the ground state. In practice, it…

The Faddeev Random Phase Approximation is a Green's function technique that makes use of Faddeev-equations to couple the motion of a single electron to the two-particle--one-hole and two-hole--one-particle excitations. This method goes…

We study the uniform electron gas with a gap model in the context of density functional theory. Based on this analysis, we construct two local gap models that realize generalized gradient approximation (GGA) correlation functionals…

We introduce affordable computational strategies for calculating orbital and pair-orbital energies in atomic and molecular systems. Our methods are based on the pair Coupled Cluster Doubles (pCCD) ansatz and its orbital-optimized variant.…

The electronic structures of four semiconductor compounds BaCu2S2, BaCu2Se2, BaAg2S2, and BaAg2Se2 are studied by density functional theory using both semi-local and hybrid functionals. The ionization energies and electron affinities were…

Average atom (AA) models allow one to efficiently compute electronic and optical properties of materials over a wide range of conditions and are often employed to interpret experimental data. However, at high pressure, predictions from AA…

The impact of residual electron correlation beyond the equation-of-motion coupled-cluster singles and doubles approximation (EOM-CCSD) on positions and widths of electronic resonances is investigated. To establish a method that accomplishes…

An integral equation method is presented for the 1D steady-state Poisson-Nernst-Planck equations modeling ion transport through membrane channels. The differential equations are recast as integral equations using Green's 3rd identity…

A general procedure for the optimization of atomic density-fitting basis functions is designed with the balance between accuracy and numerical stability in mind. Given one-electron wavefunctions and energies, weights are assigned to the…
