Many application models in quantum physics and chemistry require to control multi-electron systems to achieve a desired target configuration. This challenging task appears possible in the framework of time-dependent density functional…

Understanding many processes, e.g. fusion experiments, planetary interiors and dwarf stars, depends strongly on microscopic physics modeling of warm dense matter (WDM) and hot dense plasma. This complex state of matter consists of a…

We describe a massively parallel implementation of the recently developed discontinuous Galerkin density functional theory (DGDFT) [J. Comput. Phys. 2012, 231, 2140] method, for efficient large-scale Kohn-Sham DFT based electronic structure…

Theoretical studies of photochemical processes require a description of the energy surfaces of excited electronic states, especially near degeneracies, where transitions between states are most likely. Systems relevant to photochemical…

Solving the Kohn-Sham eigenvalue problem constitutes the most computationally expensive part in self-consistent density functional theory (DFT) calculations. In a previous paper, we have proposed a nonlinear Chebyshev-filtered subspace…

Many scientific and engineering challenges can be formulated as optimization problems which are constrained by partial differential equations (PDEs). These include inverse problems, control problems, and design problems. As a major…

In the present study, we consider the numerical method for Toeplitz-like linear systems arising from the $d$-dimensional Riesz space fractional diffusion equations (RSFDEs). We apply the Crank-Nicolson (CN) technique to discretize the…

Time-dependent density-functional theory (TDDFT) treats dynamical exchange and correlation (xc) via a single-particle potential, Vxc(r,t), defined as a nonlocal functional of the density n(r',t'). The popular adiabatic local-density…

Advanced Krylov subspace methods are investigated for the solution of large sparse linear systems arising from stiff adjoint-based aerodynamic shape optimization problems. A special attention is paid to the flexible inner-outer GMRES…

We adopted the time-dependent density functional theory (TDDFT) within the linear augmented Slater-type orbitals (LASTO) basis and the cluster averaging method to compute the {\color{red}excitation} spectra of III-V ternary alloys with…

DFT calculations have become widespread in both chemistry and materials, because they usually provide useful accuracy at much lower computational cost than wavefunction-based methods. All practical DFT calculations require an approximation…

The classic density-functional theory (DFT) formalism introduced by Hohenberg, Kohn, and Sham in the mid-1960s, is based upon the idea that the complicated N-electron wavefunction can be replaced with the mathematically simpler 1-electron…

Localized molecular orbitals are often used for the analysis of chemical bonds, but they can also serve to efficiently and comprehensibly compute linear response properties. While conventional canonical molecular orbitals provide an…

An extension of time-dependent density functional theory (TDDFT), the generalized time-dependent generator coordinate method (TDGCM), is applied to a study of induced nuclear fission dynamics. In the generalized TDGCM, the correlated…

Warm dense matter (WMD) describes an intermediate phase, between condensed matter and classical plasmas, found in natural and man-made systems. In a laboratory setting, WDM needs to be created dynamically. It is typically laser or…

Density functional theory (DFT) stands as a cornerstone method in computational quantum chemistry and materials science due to its remarkable versatility and scalability. Yet, it suffers from limitations in accuracy, particularly when…

Favorably scaling numerical time-dependent many-electron techniques such as time-dependent density functional theory (TDDFT) with adiabatic exchange-correlation potentials typically fail in capturing highly correlated electron dynamics. We…

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…

When running time-dependent density functional theory (TDDFT) calculations for real-time simulations of non-equilibrium dynamics, the user has a choice of initial Kohn-Sham state, and typically a Slater determinant is used. We explore the…

We present a Gaussian-basis implementation of orbital-free density-functional theory (OF-DFT) in which the trust-region image method (TRIM) is used for optimization. This second-order optimization scheme has been constructed to provide…
