Time-dependent density functional theory (TDDFT) is rapidly emerging as a premier method for solving dynamical many-body problems in physics and chemistry. The mathematical foundations of TDDFT are established through the formal existence…
The real-time electronic dynamics on material surfaces is critically important to a variety of applications. However, their simulations have remained challenging for conventional methods such as the time-dependent density-functional theory…
In the present work, we introduce a Self-Consistent Density-Functional Embedding technique, which leaves the realm of standard energy-functional approaches in Density Functional Theory and targets directly the density-to-potential mapping…
We introduce a new form of density functional theory for the {\em ab initio} description of electronic systems in contact with a molecular liquid environment. This theory rigorously joins an electron density-functional for the electrons of…
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 present a new class of non-adiabatic approximations in time-dependent density functional theory derived from an exact expression for the time-dependent exchange-correlation potential. The approximations reproduce dynamical step and peak…
The dynamics of a many-body system coupled to an external environment represents a fundamentally important problem. To this class of open quantum systems pertains the study of energy transport and dissipation, dephasing, quantum measurement…
We review the progress that has been recently made in the application of time-dependent density functional theory to thermoelectric phenomena. As the field is very young, we emphasize open problems and fundamental issues. We begin by…
We present a variational formulation of Time-Dependent Density Functional Theory similar to the constrained-search variational formulation of ground-state density-function theory. The formulation is applied to justify the time-dependent…
A time-dependent current-density-functional theory for many-particle systems in interaction with arbitrary external baths is developed. We prove that, given the initial quantum state $|\Psi_0>$ and the particle-bath interaction operator,…
A generalization of the Kohn--Sham approach is derived where the correlation-energy functional depends on the one-particle density matrix of noninteracting states and on the external potential from the interacting target-state. The…
An approximate method based on adiabatic time dependent density functional theory (TDDFT) is presented, that allows for the description of the electron dynamics in nanoscale junctions under arbitrary time dependent external potentials. In…
The density functional theory (DFT) is a remarkably successful theory of electronic structure of matter. At the foundation of this theory lies the Kohn-Sham (KS) equation. In this paper, we describe the long-time behaviour of the…
Time-dependent density functional theory is extended to include dissipative systems evolving under a master equation, providing a Hamiltonian treatment for molecular electronics. For weak electric fields, the isothermal conductivity is…
Aspects of Density Functional Resonance Theory (DFRT) [Phys. Rev. Lett. \textbf{107}, 163002 (2011)], a recently developed complex-scaled version of ground-state Density Functional Theory (DFT), are studied in detail. The asymptotic…
A model is developed, based on the density functional perturbation theory and the inverse Kohn-Sham method, that can be used to improve relativistic nuclear energy density functionals towards an exact but unknown Kohn-Sham…
In this work a practical scheme is developed for the first-principles study of time-dependent quantum transport. The basic idea is to combine the transport master-equation with the well-known time-dependent density functional theory. The…
We introduce a spectral density functional theory which can be used to compute energetics and spectra of real strongly--correlated materials using methods, algorithms and computer programs of the electronic structure theory of solids. 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.…
Reduced-density-matrix-functional theory is applied to open-shell systems. We introduce a spin-restricted formulation by appropriately expressing approximate correlation-energy functionals in terms of spin-dependent occupation numbers and…
