This note summarizes the motivation for extending current density-functional theory to include nonlocal one-electron potentials, and proposes methodology for practical calculations. The theoretical model, orbital functional theory, has been…
The capability of density-functional theory to deal with the ground-state of strongly correlated low-dimensional systems, such as semiconductor quantum dots, depends on the accuracy of functionals developed for the exchange and correlation…
We address the question of the degree of spatial non-locality of the self energy in the iron-based superconductors, a subject which is receiving considerable attention. Using LiFeAs as a prototypical example, we extract the self energy from…
We present a theory for the construction of renormalized kinetic equations to describe the dynamics of classical systems of particles in or out of equilibrium. A closed, self-consistent set of evolution equations is derived for the…
The Hohenberg-Kohn density functional was long ago shown to reduce to the Thomas-Fermi approximation in the non-relativistic semiclassical (or large-$Z$) limit for all matter, i.e, the kinetic energy becomes local. Exchange also becomes…
The key feature of nonlocal kinetic energy functionals is their ability to reduce to the Thomas-Fermi functional in the regions of high density and to the von Weizs\"acker functional in the region of low density/high density gradient. This…
In this paper I report a pedagogical derivation of the unconventional electronic hydrodynamics in graphene on the basis of the kinetic theory. While formally valid in the weak coupling limit, this approach allows one to derive the…
This article generalizes the notion of the local density of a many-body system to introduce collective coordinates as explicit degrees of freedom. It is shown that the energy of the system can be expressed as a functional of this object.…
Density functional theory (DFT) is a powerful theoretical tool widely used in such diverse fields as computational condensed matter physics, atomic physics, and quantum chemistry. DFT establishes that a system of $N$ interacting electrons…
Direct correlation functions (DCFs), linked to the second functional derivative of the free energy with respect to the one-particle density, play a fundamental role in a statistical mechanics description of matter. This holds in particular…
Density functional theory (DFT) offers a desirable balance between quantitative accuracy and computational efficiency in practical many-electron calculations. Its central component, the exchange-correlation energy functional, has been…
The frequency-dependent exchange-correlation potential, which appears in the usual Kohn-Sham formulation of a time-dependent linear response problem, is a strongly nonlocal functional of the density, so that a consistent local density…
Kohn-Sham density functional theory is the base of modern computational approaches to electronic structures. Their accuracy vitally relies on the exchange-correlation energy functional, which encapsulates electron-electron interaction…
Time-dependent density functional theory, proposed recently in the context of atomic diffusion and non-equilibrium processes in solids, is tested against Monte Carlo simulation. In order to assess the basic approximation of that theory, the…
A theory of freezing of a dense hard sphere gas is presented. Starting from a revised Enskog theory, hydrodynamic equations that account for non-local variations in the density but local variations in the flow field are derived using a…
The practical success of density functional theory (DFT) is largely credited to the Kohn-Sham approach, which enables the exact calculation of the non-interacting electron kinetic energy via an auxiliary noninteracting system. Yet, the…
We propose an ansatz without adjustable parameters for the calculation of dynamical structure factor. The ansatz combines quasi-particle Green's function, especially the contribution from the renormalization factor, and the…
We analytically construct the wave function that, for a given initial state, produces a prescribed density for a quantum ring with two non-interacting particles in a singlet state. In this case the initial state is completely determined by…
Predictivity of the Kohn-Sham approach to dynamical problems, when regarded as an initial value problem in a time-dependent density functional framework, is analysed for a class of models for which the argument devised in the work of Maitra…
Density Functional Theory's Kohn-Sham (KS) potential emerges as the minimizing effective potential in an unconstrained variational scheme that does not involve fixing the unknown single-electron density. The physical content behind the…
