The Extended Koopman's Theorem (EKT) provides a straightforward way to compute charged excitations from any level of theory. In this work we make the link with the many-body effective energy theory (MEET) that we derived to calculate the…
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…
We propose and work out a reduced density matrix functional theory (RDMFT) for calculating energies of eigenstates of interacting many-electron systems beyond the ground state. Various obstacles which historically have doomed such an…
In this work we explore the performance of approximations to electron correlation in reduced density-matrix functional theory (RDMFT) and of approximations to the observables calculated within this theory. Our analysis focuses on the…
Reduced density-matrix functional theory (RDMFT) has become an appealing alternative to density-functional theory to describe electronic properties of highly-correlated systems. Here we derive exact conditions for the suitability of RDMFT…
We examine the performance of the density matrix embedding theory (DMET) recently proposed in [G. Knizia and G. K.-L. Chan, Phys. Rev. Lett. 109, 186404 (2012)]. The core of this method is to find a proper one-body potential that generates…

In [Phys. Rev. Lett. 127, 023001 (2021)] a reduced density matrix functional theory (RDMFT) has been proposed for calculating energies of selected eigenstates of interacting many-fermion systems. Here, we develop a solid foundation for this…
Density functional theory (DFT), one of the most widely utilized methods available to computational chemistry, fails to describe systems with statically correlated electrons. To address this shortcoming, in previous work we transformed DFT…
