Self-consistency based Kohn-Sham density functional theory (KS-DFT) electronic structure calculations with Gaussian basis sets are reported for a set of 17 protein-like molecules with geometries obtained from the protein data bank. It is…
Within density-functional theory, the local-density approximation (LDA) correlation functional is typically built by fitting the difference between the near-exact and Hartree-Fock (HF) energies of the uniform electron gas (UEG), together…
We compare two different approaches to investigations of many-electron systems. The first is the Hartree-Fock (HF) method and the second is the Density Functional Theory (DFT). Overview of the main features and peculiar properties of the HF…
We have examined the performance of the analytic Hartree-Fock-Slater (HFS) method for various alpha (Slater's exchange parameter) values and empiricaly determined the optimal alpha value by minimizing the mean absolute error (MAE) in…
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…
Kohn-Sham density functional theory (DFT) is nowadays widely used for electronic structure theory simulations, and the accuracy and efficiency of DFT rely on approximations of the exchange-correlation functional. By inclusion of the kinetic…
While ab initio many-body techniques have been able to successfully describe the properties of light and intermediate mass nuclei based on chiral effective field theory interactions, neutron-rich nuclei still remain out of reach for these…
Gross-Oliveira-Kohn density-functional theory (GOK-DFT) is an extension of DFT to excited states where the basic variable is the ensemble density, i.e. the weighted sum of ground- and excited-state densities. The ensemble energy (i.e. the…
The inclusion of nucleonic exchange energy has been a long-standing challenge for the relativistic density functional theory (RDFT) in nuclear physics. We propose an orbital-dependent relativistic Kohn-Sham density functional theory to…
An atom placed inside a cavity of finite dimension offers many interesting features, and thus has been a topic of great current activity. This work proposes a density functional approach to pursue both ground and excited states of a…
We devise an efficient practical method for computing the Kohn-Sham exchange-correlation potential corresponding to a Hartree-Fock electron density. This potential is almost indistinguishable from the exact-exchange optimized effective…
This chapter presents the development of a density functional theory (DFT)-based method for accurate, reliable treatment of various resonances in atoms. Many of these are known to be notorious for their strong correlation, proximity to more…
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…
We introduce a generalization (gLDA) of the traditional Local Density Approximation (LDA) within density functional theory. The gLDA uses both the one-electron Seitz radius $\rs$ and a two-electron hole curvature parameter $\eta$ at each…
We calculate the electronic structure of several atoms and small molecules by direct minimization of the Self-Interaction Corrected Local Density Approximation (SIC-LDA) functional. To do this we first derive an expression for the gradient…
The self consistent version of the density functional theory is presented, which allows to calculate the ground state and dynamic properties of finite multi-electron systems. An exact functional equation for the effective interaction, from…
We derive a generalized gradient approximation to the exchange energy to be used in density functional theory calculations of two-dimensional systems. This class of approximations has a long and successful history, but it has not yet been…
We provide a rigorous derivation of a class of double-hybrid approximations, combining Hartree-Fock exchange and second-order Moller-Plesset correlation with a semilocal exchange-correlation density functional. These double-hybrid…
We present a substantial extension of our constraint-based approach for development of orbital-free (OF) kinetic-energy (KE) density functionals intended for the calculation of quantum-mechanical forces in multi-scale molecular dynamics…
This is a follow-up of our recently proposed work on pseudopotential calculation (Ref. [21]) of atoms and molecules within DFT framework, using cartesian coordinate grid. Detailed results are presented to demonstrate the usefulness,…
