We propose hybrid schemes incorporating exact exchange into thermally-assisted-occupation density functional theory (TAO-DFT) [J.-D. Chai, J. Chem. Phys. 136, 154104 (2012)] for an improved description of nonlocal exchange effects. With a…
The Hubbard model provides a test bed to investigate the complex behaviour arising from electron-electron interaction in strongly-correlated systems and naturally emerges as the foundation model for lattice density functional theory (DFT).…
The Kohn-Sham approach to time-dependent density-functional theory (TDDFT) can be formulated, in principle exactly, by invoking the force-balance equation for the density, which leads to an explicit expression for the exchange-correlation…
In the search for an accurate and computationally efficient approximation to the exact exchange potential of Kohn-Sham density functional theory, we recently compared various semilocal exchange potentials to the exact one [F. Tran et al.,…
An approximation for the exchange-correlation energy of reduced-density-matrix-functional theory was recently derived from a study of the homogeneous electron gas (N.N. Lathiotakis, N. Helbig, E.K.U. Gross, Phys. Rev. B 75, 195120 (2007)).…
We extend the previously proposed one-parameter double-hybrid density-functional theory [K. Sharkas, J. Toulouse, and A. Savin, J. Chem. Phys. 134, 064113 (2011)] to meta-generalized-gradient-approximation (meta-GGA) exchange-correlation…
Using Kohn-Sham density functional theory (KS-DFT), we have studied the interaction between various polyaromatic hydrocarbon molecules. The systems range from mono-cyclic benzene up to hexabenzocoronene (hbc). For several conventional…
The uniform electron gas and the hydrogen atom play fundamental roles in condensed matter physics and quantum chemistry. The former has an infinite number of electrons uniformly distributed over the neutralizing positively-charged…
Semilocal exchange-correlation functionals are the most accurate, realistic and widely used ones to describe the complex many-electron effects of two-dimensional quantum systems. Beyond local density approximation, the generalized gradient…
In modeling low-dimensional electronic nanostructures, the evaluation of the electron-electron interaction is a challenging task. Here we present an accurate and practical density-functional approach to the two-dimensional many-electron…
One of the most powerful strategies to address properties of real many-body systems is to incorporate data obtained for models, for example, to use data of the homogeneous electron gas in order to build the Local Density Approximation for…
Reporting extensions of a recently developed approach to density functional theory with correct long-range be-havior (Phys. Rev. Lett. 94, 043002 (2005)). The central quantities are a splitting functional gamma[n] and a complementary…
Kohn-Sham regularizer (KSR) is a differentiable machine learning approach to finding the exchange-correlation functional in Kohn-Sham density functional theory (DFT) that works for strongly correlated systems. Here we test KSR for weak…
We devise a nonlocal correlation energy functional that describes the entire range of dispersion interactions in a seamless fashion using only the electron density as input. The new functional is considerably simpler than its predecessors…
The dissociation of molecules, even the most simple hydrogen molecule, cannot be described accurately within density functional theory because none of the currently available functionals accounts for strong on-site correlation. This problem…
Recently, Tao and Mo proposed an accurate meta-generalized gradient approximation for the exchange-correlation energy. The exchange part is derived from the density matrix expansion, while the correlation part is obtained by improving the…
In spin-density-functional theory (SDFT) for noncollinear magnetic materials, the Kohn-Sham system features exchange-correlation (xc) scalar potentials and magnetic fields. The significance of the xc magnetic fields is not very well…
Mejia-Rodriguez and Trickey recently proposed a procedure for removing the explicit dependence of meta-GGA exchange-correlation energy functionals $E_{\rm xc}$ on the kinetic energy density $\tau$. We present a simple modification to this…
The fundamental gap of an interacting many-electron system is given by the sum of the single-particle Kohn-Sham gap and the derivative discontinuity. The latter can be generated by advanced approximations to the exchange-correlation (XC)…
New density functional theory approach based on a complete active space self-consistent field (CASSCF) reference function in Extended Koopmans' approximation is discussed. Recently, the number of generalizations of density functional theory…
