Density functional theory (DFT) is the de facto approach for predicting self-consistent-field electronic structures of ground-state configurations of complex atoms, molecules, and solids and providing their property data for materials…

We review an approach where the energy functional of Density-Functional Theory (DFT) can be determined without empiricism via a Quantum Monte Carlo (QMC) procedure. The idea consists of a nested iterative loop where the configurational…

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 present work proposes to use density-functional theory (DFT) to correct for the basis-set error of wave-function theory (WFT). One of the key ideas developed here is to define a range-separation parameter which automatically adapts to a…

This is a sequel to our recent work [1] in which we calculated the lepton number violating (LNV) $K^\pm$ decays due to contact dimension-9 (dim-9) quark-lepton effective interactions that are induced at a high energy scale. In this work we…

A new anchor-based optimization method of defining the energy density functionals (EDFs) is proposed. In this approach, the optimization of the parameters of EDF is carried out for the selected set of spherical anchor nuclei the physical…

An exchange energy functional is proposed and tested for obtaining a class of excited-state energies using density functional formalism. The functional is the excited-state counterpart of the local-density approximation functional for the…

We explore a new formalism to study the nonlinear electronic density response based on Kohn-Sham density functional theory (KS-DFT) at partially and strongly quantum degenerate regimes. It is demonstrated that the KS-DFT calculations are…

The energy density functional (EDF) method is currently the only microscopic theoretical approach able to tackle the entire nuclear chart. Nevertheless, it suffers from limitations resulting from its empirical character and deteriorating…

The density functional theory (DFT) is based on the existence and uniqueness of a universal functional $E[\rho]$, which determines the dependence of the total energy on single-particle density distributions. However, DFT says nothing about…

Ensemble density functional theory (EDFT) is a promising alternative to time-dependent density functional theory for computing electronic excitation energies. Using coordinate scaling, we prove several fundamental exact conditions in EDFT…

Energy functionals serve as the basis for different models and methods in quantum and classical many-particle physics. Arguably, one of the most successful and widely used approaches in material science at both ambient and extreme…

Density functional theory (DFT) offers a desirable balance between quantitative accuracy and computational efficiency in practical many-electron calculations. Its central component, the exchange-correlation energy functional, has been…

In this paper density functionals for Coulomb systems subjected to electric and magnetic fields are developed. The density functionals depend on the particle density, $\rho$, and paramagnetic current density, $j^p$. This approach is…

This is a follow-up of our recently proposed work on pseudopotential calculation (Ref. [21]) of atoms and molecules within DFT framework, using cartesian coordinate grid. Detailed results are presented to demonstrate the usefulness,…

The uniform electron gas (UEG) is a cornerstone of density-functional theory (DFT) and the foundation of the local-density approximation (LDA), one of the most successful approximations in DFT. In this work, we extend the concept of UEG by…

We prove that the electron density function of a real physical system can be uniquely determined by its values on any finite subsystem. This establishes the existence of a rigorous density-functional theory for any open electronic system.…

Ensemble Density Functional Theory (EDFT) is a promising extension to Density Functional Theory (DFT) for calculating excited states. While Kohn-Sham eigenvalue differences underestimate gaps, EDFT has been shown to provide more accurate…

Recent observations of neutron stars with gravitational waves and X-ray timing provide unprecedented access to the equation of state (EoS) of cold dense matter at densities difficult to realize in terrestrial experiments. At the same time,…

Relativistic energy density functionals (REDF) provide a complete and accurate, global description of nuclear structure phenomena. A modern semi-empirical functional, adjusted to the nuclear matter equation of state and to empirical masses…
