Reduced density-matrix functional theory (RDMFT) provides a variational route to electronic correlations beyond conventional density-functional approximations, but explicit evaluations of density-matrix functionals still scale exponentially…

We clarify different definitions of the density matrix by proposing the use of different names, the full density matrix for a single-closed quantum system, the compressed density matrix for the averaged single molecule state from an…

We present a density-matrix embedding theory (DMET) study of the one-dimensional Hubbard-Holstein model, which is paradigmatic for the interplay of electron-electron and electron-phonon interactions. Analyzing the single-particle excitation…

Density Functional Theory (DFT) is widely used for atomistic simulations. However, its reach stays limited due to several limitations such as lack of accurate exchange-correlation functional, requirement of costly O(N 3) diagonalization…

In the present work, we introduce a Self-Consistent Density-Functional Embedding technique, which leaves the realm of standard energy-functional approaches in Density Functional Theory and targets directly the density-to-potential mapping…

We introduce 'single-particle-exact density functional theory' (1pEx-DFT), a novel density functional approach that represents all single-particle contributions to the energy with exact functionals. Here, we parameterize interaction energy…

Recent advances in continuum embedding models have enabled the incorporation of solvent and electrolyte effects into density functional theory (DFT) simulations of material surfaces, significantly benefiting electrochemistry, catalysis, and…

We develop an energy density matrix that parallels the one-body reduced density matrix (1RDM) for many-body quantum systems. Just as the density matrix gives access to the number density and occupation numbers, the energy density matrix…

Density matrix embedding theory (DMET) formally requires the matching of density matrix blocks obtained from high-level and low-level theories, but this is sometimes not achievable in practical calculations. In such a case, the global band…

In this work, we derive a multi-fragment real-time extension of projected density matrix embedding theory (pDMET) designed to treat non-equilibrium electron dynamics in strongly correlated systems. As in the previously developed static…

A unified formulation of the density functional theory is constructed on the foundations of entropic inference in both the classical and the quantum regimes. The theory is introduced as an application of entropic inference for inhomogeneous…

Ground-state electronic structure calculations using Kohn-Sham density functional theory (KS-DFT) offer an unprecedented balance between efficiency and accuracy, now paradigmatic to the fields of quantum chemistry and condensed matter…

Density matrix embedding theory (DMET) [Phys. Rev. Lett.2012, 109, 186404] has been demonstrated as an efficient wave-function-based embedding method to treat extended systems. Despite its success in many quantum lattice models, the…

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…

Recently we proposed an information entropy based method for electronic structure calculations within the density-matrix functional theory(DMFT) (Phys. Rev. Lett. 128, 013001), dubbed as $i$-DMFT. Comments have been raised regarding the…

Density functional theory (DFT) embedding provides a formally exact framework for interfacing correlated wave-function theory (WFT) methods with lower-level descriptions of electronic structure. Here, we report techniques to improve the…

We analyze cellular dynamical mean-field theory (CDMFT) and the dynamical cluster approximation (DCA). We derive exact sum-rules for the hybridization functions and give examples for DMFT, CDMFT, and DCA. For impurity solvers based on a…

We develop a method in which the electronic densities of small fragments determined by Kohn-Sham density functional theory (DFT) are embedded using stochastic DFT to form the exact density of the full system. The new method preserves the…

Quantum computers open up new avenues for modelling the physical properties of materials and molecules. Density Functional Theory (DFT) is the gold standard classical algorithm for predicting these properties, but relies on approximations…

Density matrix embedding theory (Phys. Rev. Lett. 109, 186404 (2012)) and density embedding theory ((Phys. Rev. B 89, 035140 (2014)) have recently been introduced for model lattice Hamiltonians and molecular systems. In the present work,…
