A density functional theory is developed for fermions in one dimension, interacting via a delta-function. Such systems provide a natural testing ground for questions of principle, as the local density approximation should work well for…

Density functional theory is the standard theory for computing the electronic structure of materials, which is based on a functional that maps the electron density to the energy. However, a rigorous form of the functional is not known and…

In the exact Kohn-Sham density-functional theory (DFT), the total energy versus the number of electrons is a series of linear segments between integer points. However, commonly used approximate density functionals produce total energies…
