We study in this article the mathematical properties of a class of orbital-free kinetic energy functionals. We prove that these models are linearly stable but nonlinearly unstable, in the sense that the corresponding kinetic energy…
In orbital-free density functional theory the kinetic potential (KP), the functional derivative of the kinetic energy density functional, appears in the Euler equation for the electron density and may be more amenable to simple…
In the density functional (DF) theory of Kohn and Sham, the kinetic energy of the ground state of a system of noninteracting electrons in a general external field is calculated using a set of orbitals. Orbital free methods attempt to…
Kinetic energy functionals of the electronic density are used to model large systems in the context of density functional theory, without the need to obtain electronic wavefunctions. We discuss the problems associated with the application…
The quest for an approximate yet accurate kinetic energy density functional is central to the development of orbital-free density functional theory. While a recipe for closed-shell systems has been proposed earlier, we have shown that it…
Machine learning is employed to build an energy density functional for self-bound nuclear systems for the first time. By learning the kinetic energy as a functional of the nucleon density alone, a robust and accurate orbital-free density…
The exact form of the kinetic energy functional has remained elusive in orbital-free models of density functional theory (DFT). This has been the main stumbling block for the development of a general-purpose framework on this basis. Here,…
Kinetic energy density functionals (KEDFs) are central to orbital-free density functional theory. Limitations on the spatial derivative dependencies of KEDFs have been claimed from differential virial theorems. We point out a central defect…
We present a substantial extension of our constraint-based approach for development of orbital-free (OF) kinetic-energy (KE) density functionals intended for the calculation of quantum-mechanical forces in multi-scale molecular dynamics…
Orbital-free density functional theory promises to deliver linear-scaling electronic structure calculations. This requires the knowledge of the non-interacting kinetic-energy density functional (KEDF), which should be accurate and must…
We report a direct scheme calculation of kinetic energy functional derivative using Machine Learning. Support Vector Regression and Kernel Ridge Regression techniques were independently employed to estimate the kinetic energy functional and…
We present a kinetic energy tensor that unifies a scalar kinetic energy density commonly used in meta-Generalized Gradient Approximation functionals and the vorticity density that appears in paramagnetic current-density-functional theory.…
Within ``orbital-free'' density functional theory, it is essential to develop general kinetic energy density (KED), denoted as $t(\mathbf{r})$. This is usually done by empirical corrections and enhancements, gradient expansions, machine…
Developing a reliable kinetic energy density functional within orbital-free density functional theory remains a long-standing challenge, particularly for atomic and molecular systems. A major difficulty lies in the absence of a systematic…
An axiomatic approach is herein used to determine the physically acceptable forms for general $D$-dimensional kinetic energy density functionals (KEDF). The resulted expansion captures most of the known forms of one-point KEDFs. By…
To explore the applicability of orbital-free density functional theory (OF-DFT) in nuclear physics, we perform a systematic benchmark of 36 one-point kinetic energy density functionals, which are originally developed for electron systems in…
An accurate expression of the kinetic energy density of an electronic distribution in terms of the single particle reduced density matrix for atomic and molecular systems is a long-standing problem in electron structure theory. Existing…
Orbital-free Density Functional Theory (OF-DFT) has been used when studying atoms, molecules and solids. In nuclear physics, there has been basically no application of OF-DFT so far, as the Density Functional Theory (DFT) has been widely…
We derive a non-empirical, orbital-free density functional for the total energy of interacting electrons in two dimensions. The functional consists of a local formula for the interaction energy, where we follow the lines introduced by Parr…
There is a number of explicit kinetic energy density functionals for non-interacting electron systems that are obtained in terms of the electron density and its derivatives. These semilocal functionals have been widely used in the…
