Gross--Oliveira--Kohn (GOK) ensemble density-functional theory (GOK-DFT) is a time-\textit{independent} extension of density-functional theory (DFT) which allows to compute excited-state energies via the derivatives of the ensemble energy…

The calculation of electronic properties of materials is an important task of solid state theory, albeit particularly difficult if electronic correlations are strong, for example in transition metals, their oxides and in f-electron systems.…

A combination of classical molecular dynamics (MM/MD) and quantum chemical calculations based on the density functional theory (DFT) was performed to describe conformational properties of diphenylethyne (DPE), methylated-DPE and poly para…

Density functional theory has been an essential analysis tool for both theoretical and experimental chemists since accurate hybrid functionals were developed. Here we propose a local hybrid method derived from the optimized effective…

Improving the accuracy and thus broadening the applicability of electronic density functional theory (DFT) is crucial to many research areas, from material science, to theoretical chemistry, biophysics and biochemistry. In the last three…

The excited state electronic structure of $\pi$ conjugated phenylene-acetylene oligomers is calculated using time-dependent density functional theory (TD-DFT) approaches. The theoretical fluorescence spectra are analyzed in terms of…

Two-dimensional (2D) materials exhibit a wide range of electronic properties that make them promising candidates for next-generation nanoelectronic devices. Accurate prediction of their quantum transport behavior is therefore of both…

A variational formulation for the calculation of interacting fermion systems based on the density-matrix functional theory is presented. Our formalism provides for a natural integration of explicit many-particle effects into standard…

We investigate configuration-interaction (CI) calculations on a basis of molecular orbitals generated by preliminary density-functional theory (DFT) calculations. We use this CI/DFT framework to improve the modeling of core-excited states…

Time-dependent orbital-free density functional theory (TD-OFDFT) is an efficient ab-initio method for calculating the electronic dynamics of large systems. In comparison to standard TD-DFT, it computes only a single electronic state…

High-entropy alloys (HEAs) exhibit exceptional catalytic performance due to their complex surface structures. However, the vast number of active binding sites in HEAs, as opposed to conventional alloys, presents a significant computational…

We study the non-integrable Dicke model, and its integrable approximation, the Tavis-Cummings model, as functions of both the coupling constant and the excitation energy. Excited-state quantum phase transitions (ESQPT) are found analyzing…

We study non-linear adiabatic connection paths in density-functional theory using modified electron-electron interactions that perform a long-range/short-range separation of the Coulomb interaction. These adiabatic connections allows to…

The computation of excited electronic states with commonly employed (approximate) methods is challenging, typically yielding states of lower quality than the corresponding ground state for a higher computational cost. In this work, we…

For the computational prediction of core electron binding energies in solids, two distinct kinds of modelling strategies have been pursued: the $\Delta$-Self-Consistent-Field method based on density functional theory (DFT), and the GW…

We present the results of numerical studies for selected materials with strongly correlated electrons using a combination of the local-density approximation and dynamical mean-field theory (DMFT). For the solution of the DMFT equations a…

We extend the density functional perturbation theory formalism to the case of non-collinear magnetism. The main problem comes with the exchange-correlation (XC) potential derivatives, which are the only ones that are affected by the…

Strongly correlated systems containing d/f-electrons present a challenge to conventional density functional theory (DFT), such as the widely used local density approximation (LDA) or generalized gradient approximation (GGA). In this work,…

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 illustrate the scope of Time Dependent Density Functional Theory (TDDFT) for strongly correlated (lattice) models out of equilibrium. Using the exact many body time evolution, we reverse engineer the exact exchange correlation (xc)…
