This chapter provides a basic introduction to excited-state extensions of density functional theory (DFT), including time-dependent (TD-)DFT in both its linear-response and its explicitly time-dependent formulations. As applied to the…

There has been a high demand in rectifying the band gap under-estimation problem in density functional theory (DFT), while keeping the computational load at the same level as local density approximation. DFT-1/2 and shell DFT-1/2 are useful…

The complex nature of electron-electron correlations is made manifest in the very simple but non-trivial problem of two electrons confined within a sphere. The description of highly non-local correlation and self-interaction effects by…

We study model one-dimensional chemical systems (representative of their three-dimensional counterparts) using the strictly-correlated electrons (SCE) functional, which, by construction, becomes asymptotically exact in the limit of infinite…

We investigate from a practitioner's point of view the computation of the ionization potential (IP) within density functional theory (DFT). DFT with (semi-)local energy-density functionals is plagued by a self-interaction error which…

Density functional theory (DFT) exploits an independent-particle-system construction to replicate the densities and current of an interacting system. This construction is used here to access the exact effective potential and bias of…

Heterogeneous interfaces are central to many energy-related applications in the nanoscale. From the first-principles electronic structure perspective, one of the outstanding problems is accurately and efficiently calculating how the…

We present a fully variational locally scaled self-interaction corrected (SIC) energy functional using complex optimal orbitals. This represents an important milestone for fully variational SIC energy functionals, which have been shown to…

Kohn-Sham density functional theory (DFT) has long struggled with the accurate description of strongly correlated and open shell systems and improvements have been minor even in the newest hybrid functionals. In this Letter we treat the…

Nuclear density functional theory (DFT) is the only microscopic, global approach to the structure of atomic nuclei. It is used in numerous applications, from determining the limits of stability to gaining a deep understanding of the…

We extend to strongly correlated molecular systems the recently introduced basis-set incompleteness correction based on density-functional theory (DFT) [E. Giner et al., J. Chem. Phys. 149, 194301 (2018)]. This basis-set correction relies…

Motivated by the considerable importance of material properties in modern condensed matter physics research, and using techniques of the $N_{e}$ -electron systems in terms of the electron density $n_{\sigma e}\left( r\right) $ needed to…

Understanding the mechanisms underlying ion channel function from the atomic-scale requires accurate ab initio modelling as well as careful experiments. Here, we present a density functional theory (DFT) study of the ion channel gramicidin…

Density functional theory (DFT) has greatly expanded our ability to affordably compute and understand electronic ground states, by replacing intractable {\em ab initio} calculations by models based on paradigmatic physics from high- and…

A technique allowing for a perturbative treatment of nonlocal corrections to the single-site dynamical mean-field theory (DMFT) in finite dimensions is developed. It is based on the observation that in the case of strong electron…

DFT-1/2 is an efficient band gap rectification method for density functional theory (DFT) under local density approximation (LDA) or generalized gradient approximation. It was suggested that non-self-consistent DFT-1/2 should be used for…

One of the most important open challenges in modern Kohn-Sham (KS) density-functional theory (DFT) is the correct treatment of fractional electron charges and spins. Approximate exchange-correlation (XC) functionals struggle to do this in a…

This is a comprehensive review of the strong-interaction limit of density functional theory. It covers the derivation of the limiting strictly correlated electrons (SCE) functional from exact Hohenberg-Kohn DFT, basic aspects of SCE physics…

In contrast to the original Kohn-Sham (KS) formalism, we propose a density functional theory (DFT) with fractional orbital occupations for the study of ground states of many-electron systems, wherein strong static correlation is shown to be…

In some d-electron oxides the measured effective mass m(exptl) has long been known to be significantly larger than the model effective mass m(model) deduced from mean-field band theory, i.e., m(exptl) = beta * m(model), where beta > 1 is…
