Theoretical calculations of core electron binding energies are important for aiding the interpretation of experimental core level photoelectron spectra. In previous work, the $\Delta$-Self-Consistent-Field ($\Delta$-SCF) method based on…
Density functional theory (DFT) is an exact alternative formulation of quantum mechanics, in which it is possible to calculate the total energy, the spin and the charge density of many-electron systems in the ground state. In practice, it…
We have formulated and implemented a fully charge-self-consistent density functional theory plus dynamical mean field theory methodology which enables an efficient calculation of the total energy of realistic correlated electron systems.…
We present a modification of the $\Delta$SCF method of calculating energies of excited states, in order to make it applicable to resonance calculations of molecules adsorbed on metal surfaces, where the molecular orbitals are highly…
The $\Delta$-Self-Consistent-Field ($\Delta$SCF) method has been established as an accurate and computationally efficient approach for calculating absolute core electron binding energies for light elements up to chlorine, but relatively…
We propose a hybrid approach which employs the dynamical mean-field theory (DMFT) self-energy for the correlated, typically rather localized orbitals and a conventional density functional theory (DFT) exchange-correlation potential for the…
The $GW$ approximation has recently gained increasing attention as a viable method for the computation of deep core-level binding energies as measured by X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy (XPS). We present a comprehensive benchmark study of…
Charge self-consistent DFT+DMFT quantitatively captures dynamical electronic correlations in real materials, but its cost precludes the large-scale thermodynamic sampling required for phase boundaries and equations of state. Here, we…
Density functional theory (DFT) is a widespread and effective tool in electronic structure calculations for ground-state electron systems. Its success has prompted exploration into the use of DFT for non-collective excited states. The delta…
GW calculations with fully self-consistent G and W -- based on the iterative solution of the Dyson equation -- provide an approach for consistently describing ground and excited states on the same quantum mechanical level. We show that for…
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…
The present work proposes to use density-functional theory (DFT) to correct for the basis-set error of wave-function theory (WFT). One of the key ideas developed here is to define a range-separation parameter which automatically adapts to a…
Theoretical studies of semiconductors and band insulators are usually based on variants of the $GW$ method without full self-consistency, like single-shot $G^0W^0$ or quasiparticle self-consistent $GW$. Fully self-consistent $GW$ provides a…
Standard density functional approximations often give questionable results for odd-electron radical complexes, with the error typically attributed to self-interaction. In density corrected density functional theory (DC-DFT), certain classes…
We have performed {\it ab initio} calculations for a series of energetic solids to explore their structural and electronic properties. To evaluate the ground state volume of these molecular solids, different dispersion correction methods…
We introduce in detail our newly developed \textit{ab initio} LDA+Gutzwiller method, in which the Gutzwiller variational approach is naturally incorporated with the density functional theory (DFT) through the "Gutzwiller density functional…
Exchange interactions are a manifestation of the quantum mechanical nature of the electrons and play a key role in predicting the properties of materials from first principles. In density functional theory (DFT), a widely used approximation…
In order to obtain a reasonably accurate and easily implemented approach to many-electron calculations, we will develop a new Density Functional Theory (DFT). Specifically, we derive an approximation to electron density, the first term of…
Density functional theory (DFT) is the de facto approach for predicting self-consistent-field electronic structures of ground-state configurations of complex atoms, molecules, and solids and providing their property data for materials…
We present theoretical calculations of quasiparticle energies in closed-shell molecules using the GW method. We compare three different approaches: a full-frequency $G_0W_0$ (FF-$G_0W_0$) method with density functional theory (DFT-PBE) used…
