We show that the time dependent single electron, nuclear density matrix of an interacting electronic system coupled to nuclear degrees of freedom can be exactly reproduced by that of an electronic system with arbitrarily specified…
Time-dependent (current) density functional theory for many-electron systems strongly coupled to quantized electromagnetic modes of a microcavity is proposed. It is shown that the electron-photon wave function is a unique functional of the…
Particle currents flowing against an external driving are a fascinating phenomenon in both single-particle and interacting many-particle systems. Underlying physical mechanisms of such current reversals are not fully understood yet.…
Most present applications of time-dependent density functional theory use adiabatic functionals, i.e. the effective potential at time t is determined solely by the density at the same time. This paper discusses a method that aims to go…
We present a derivation of a recently proposed theory for the time dependence of density fluctuations in stationary states of strongly interacting, athermal, self-propelled particles. The derivation consists of two steps. First, we start…
In this work a practical scheme is developed for the first-principles study of time-dependent quantum transport. The basic idea is to combine the transport master-equation with the well-known time-dependent density functional theory. The…
To explore whether the density-functional theory non-equilibrium Green's function formalism (DFT-NEGF) provides a rigorous framework for quantum transport, we carried out time-dependent density functional theory (TDDFT) calculations of the…
The Runge-Gross [E. Runge, and E. K. U. Gross, Phys. Rev. Lett., 52, 997 (1984)] action functional of time-dependent density-functional theory leads to a well-known causality paradox, i.e., a perturbation of the electronic density in the…
We study the mapping between time-dependent densities and potentials for noninteracting electronic systems on lattices. As discovered recently by Baer [J. Chem. Phys. 128, 044103 (2008)], there exist well-behaved time-dependent density…
The cornerstone of time-dependent (TD) density functional theory (DFT), the Runge-Gross theorem, proves a one-to-one correspondence between TD potentials and TD densities of continuum Hamiltonians. In all practical implementations, however,…
We review the progress that has been recently made in the application of time-dependent density functional theory to thermoelectric phenomena. As the field is very young, we emphasize open problems and fundamental issues. We begin by…
A time-dependent density functional theory (TDDFT) for a quantum many-body system on a lattice is formulated rigorously. We prove the uniqueness of the density-to-potential mapping and demonstrate that a given density is $v$-representable…
We prove that the electron density function of a real physical system can be uniquely determined by its values on any finite subsystem. This establishes the existence of a rigorous density-functional theory for any open electronic system.…
Current-density-functional theory is used to calculate ionization energies of current-carrying atomic states. A perturbative approximation to full current-density-functional theory is implemented for the first time, and found to be…
We present a computationally tractable scheme of time-dependent transport phenomena within open-boundary time-dependent density-functional-theory. Within this approach all the response properties of a system are determined from the…
We present a constructive derivation of a time-dependent deformation functional theory -- a collective variable approach to the nonequalibrium quantum many-body problem. It is shown that the motion of infinitesimal fluid elements (i.e. a…
We give an integral expression for the vector potential of a time-independent, steady azimuthal current density. Our derivation is substantially simpler and somewhat more general than others given in the literature. As an illustration, we…
A rigorous formulation of time-dependent current density functional theory (TDCDFT) on a lattice is presented. The density-to-potential mapping and the ${\cal V}$-representability problems are reduced to a solution of a certain nonlinear…
We employ the density matrix renormalization group to construct the exact time-dependent exchange correlation potential for an impurity model with an applied transport voltage. Even for short-ranged interaction we find an infinitely…
The key questions of uniqueness and existence in time-dependent density functional theory are usually formulated only for potentials and densities that are analytic in time. Simple examples, standard in quantum mechanics, lead however to…
