Finite temperature density functional theory provides, in principle, an exact description of the thermodynamical equilibrium of many-electron systems. In practical applications, however, the functionals must be approximated. Efficient and…

This chapter presents controlled approximations of Kohn-Sham density functional theory (DFT) that enable very large scale simulations. The work is motivated by the study of defects in crystalline solids, though the ideas can be used in…
In this paper, we study finite dimensional approximations of Kohn-Sham models, which are widely used in electronic structure calculations. We prove the convergence of the finite dimensional approximations and derive the a priori error…
We describe a formulation of the density matrix embedding theory at finite temperature. We present a generalization of the ground-state bath orbital construction that embeds a mean-field finite-temperature density matrix up to a given order…

A previous analysis of scaling, bounds, and inequalities for the non-interacting functionals of thermal density functional theory is extended to the full interacting functionals. The results are obtained from analysis of the related…
Finite temperature density functional theory requires representations for the internal energy, entropy, and free energy as functionals of the local density field. A central formal difficulty for an orbital-free representation is…
The self consistent version of the density functional theory (DFT) is presented, which allows to calculate the ground state and dynamic properties of finite multi-electron systems such as atoms, molecules and clusters. The exact functional…
Density functional theory (DFT) has transformed our ability to investigate and understand electronic ground states. In its original formulation, however, DFT is not suited to addressing (e.g.) degenerate ground states, mixed states with…
We propose a systematic procedure for the approximation of density functionals in density functional theory that consists of two parts. First, for the efficient approximation of a general density functional, we introduce an efficient ansatz…

A formulation of the density functional theory is constructed on the foundations of entropic inference. The theory is introduced as an application of maximum entropy for inhomogeneous fluids in thermal equilibrium. It is shown that entropic…
