Electron correlations in molecules can be divided in short range dynamical correlations, long range Van der Waals type interactions and near degeneracy static correlations. In this work we analyze for a one-dimensional model of a…

Orbital-optimized density functional theory (DFT) has emerged as an alternative to time-dependent (TD) DFT capable of describing difficult excited states with significant electron density redistribution, such as charge-transfer, Rydberg,…

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,…

Accurate molecular geometries are a prerequisite for reliable quantum-chemical predictions, yet density functional theory (DFT) optimization remains a major bottleneck for high-throughput molecular screening. Here we present GeoOpt-Net, a…

Due to its efficiency and reasonable accuracy, density functional theory is one of the most widely used electronic structure theories in condensed matter physics, materials physics, and quantum chemistry. The accuracy and efficiency of a…

The practical utility of M{\o}ller-Plesset (MP) perturbation theory is severely constrained by the use of Hartree-Fock (HF) orbitals. It has recently been shown that use of regularized orbital-optimized MP2 orbitals and scaling of MP3…

First-principles simulations of electronic properties of hybrid inorganic/organic interfaces are challenging, as common density-functional theory (DFT) approximations target specific material classes like bulk semiconductors or gas-phase…

A model system is proposed to investigate the chemical equilibrium and mechanical stability of biological spherical-like nanoshells in contact with an aqueous solution with added dissociated electrolyte of a given concentration. The ionic…

Organic and molecule-based magnets are not easily attainable, because to introduce stable paramagnetic centers to pure organic systems is challenging. Crystalline covalent organic frameworks (COFs) with high designability and chemical…

Orbital-free density functional theory (OF-DFT) holds the promise to compute ground state molecular properties at minimal cost. However, it has been held back by our inability to compute the kinetic energy as a functional of the electron…

In the strong field molecular tunneling ionization theory of Tong et al. [Phys. Rev. A 66, 033402 (2002)], the ionization rate depends on the asymptotic wavefunction of the molecular orbital from which the electron is removed. The orbital…

Current-spin density functional theory (CSDFT) provides a framework to describe interacting many-electron systems in a magnetic field which couples to both spin- and orbital-degrees of freedom. Unlike in usual (spin-) density functional…

Nonlocal kinetic energy density functionals (KEDFs) with density-dependent kernels are currently the most accurate functionals available for orbital-free density functional theory (OF-DFT) calculations. However, despite advances in…

A versatile method for combining density functional theory (DFT) in the local density approximation (LDA) with dynamical mean-field theory (DMFT) is presented. Starting from a general basis-independent formulation, we use Wannier functions…

Simulations in the warm dense matter regime using finite temperature Kohn-Sham density functional theory (FT-KS-DFT), while frequently used, are computationally expensive due to the partial occupation of a very large number of high-energy…

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…

Quantum mechanical calculations of core electron binding energies (CEBEs) leading to 2p hole states are relevant to interpreting L-edge x-ray photo-electron spectroscopy (XPS), as well as higher edges. Orbital-optimized density functional…

Methods for calculating an electron density of a periodic crystal constructed using non-orthogonal localised orbitals are discussed. We demonstrate that an existing method based on the matrix expansion of the inverse of the overlap matrix…

Although the classical density functional theory (DFT) of inhomogeneous fluids was formulated more than four decades ago, its application to broken symmetry phases of molecular systems remained a challenge. Approximate free energy…

Extending density functional theory (DFT) to an {\it ab initio} orbital functional theory (OFT) requires new methodology for nonlocal exchange and correlation potentials. This paper describes such modifications to a standard Dirac-Slater…
