We develop a new density functional theory (DFT) and formalism for correlated electron systems by taking as reference an interacting electron system that has a ground state wavefunction which obeys exactly the Gutzwiller approximation for…

We introduce in detail our newly developed \textit{ab initio} LDA+Gutzwiller method, in which the Gutzwiller variational approach is naturally incorporated with the density functional theory (DFT) through the "Gutzwiller density functional…

Combining the density functional theory (DFT) and the Gutzwiller variational approach, a LDA+Gutzwiller method is developed to treat the correlated electron systems from {\it ab-initio}. All variational parameters are self-consistently…

Attempts to go beyond the local density approximation (LDA) of Density Functional Theory (DFT) have been increasingly based on the incorporation of more realistic Coulomb interactions. In their earliest implementations, methods like…

Ab initio calculation of the electronic properties of materials is a major challenge for solid state theory. Whereas the experience of forty years has proven density functional theory (DFT) in a suitable, e.g. local approximation (LDA) to…

One of the central problems in quantum mechanics is to determine the ground state properties of a system of electrons interacting via the Coulomb potential. Since its introduction by Hohenberg, Kohn, and Sham, Density Functional Theory…

A general set of methods is presented for calculating chemical potentials in solid and liquid mixtures using {\em ab initio} techniques based on density functional theory (DFT). The methods are designed to give an {\em ab initio} approach…

I present a critical overview of so-called "{\it ab initio}" DFT (density fuctional theory) based calculation schemes for the description of the electronic structure, energy spectrum, and optical response for strongly correlated 3$d$…

The ground state of an homogeneous electron gas is a paradigmatic state that has been used to model and predict the electronic structure of matter at equilibrium for nearly a century. For half a century, it has been successfully used to…

The electronic and magnetic properties of many strongly-correlated systems are controlled by a limited number of states, located near the Fermi level and well isolated from the rest of the spectrum. This opens a formal way for combining the…

Due to efficient scaling with electron number N, density functional theory (DFT) is widely used for studies of large molecules and solids. Restriction of an exact mean-field theory to local potential functions has recently been questioned.…

The description of realistic strongly correlated systems has recently advanced through the combination of density functional theory in the local density approximation (LDA) and dynamical mean field theory (DMFT). This LDA+DMFT method is…

Recent high resolution Compton scattering experiments clearly reveal that there are fundamental limitations to the conventional local density approximation (LDA) based description of the ground state electron momentum density (EMD) in…

First-principles simulations of electronic properties of hybrid inorganic/organic interfaces are challenging, as common density-functional theory (DFT) approximations target specific material classes like bulk semiconductors or gas-phase…

We survey approaches to nonrelativistic density functional theory (DFT) for nuclei using progress toward ab initio DFT for Coulomb systems as a guide. Ab initio DFT starts with a microscopic Hamiltonian and is naturally formulated using…

By shifting the reference system for the local-density approximation (LDA) from the electron gas to other model systems one obtains a new class of density functionals, which by design account for the correlations present in the chosen…

Standard density functional approximations often give questionable results for odd-electron radical complexes, with the error typically attributed to self-interaction. In density corrected density functional theory (DC-DFT), certain classes…

We give a detailed description of a recently proposed first principles approach to the electronic structure of strongly correlated materials. The method combines the GW approximation with dynamical mean field theory. It is designed to…

Static electric response properties of atoms and molecules are reported within the real-space Cartesian grid implementation of pseudopotential Kohn-Sham (KS) density functional theory (DFT). A detailed systematic investigation is made for a…

Density Functional Theory (DFT) has become the quasi-standard for ab-initio simulations for a wide range of applications. While the intrinsic cubic scaling of DFT was for a long time limiting the accessible system size to some hundred…
