This book was released on 1996-11-18 with total page 863 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The present status of Density Functional Theory (DFT), which has evolved as the main technique for the study of matter at the atomistic level, is described in this volume. Knowing the behavior of atoms and molecules provides a sure avenue for the design of new materials with specific features and properties in many areas of science and technology. A technique based on purely first principles allowing large savings in time and money greatly benefits the specialist or designer of new materials. The range of areas where DFT is applied has expanded and continues to do so. Any area where a molecular system is the center of attention can be studied using DFT.The scope of the 22 chapters in this book amply testifies to this.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Density functional theory (DFT) provides the most widely used models for simulating molecules and materials based on the fundamental laws of quantum mechanics. It plays a central role in a huge spectrum of applications in chemistry, physics, and materials science.Quantum mechanics describes a system of N interacting particles in the physical 3-dimensional space by a partial differential equation in 3N spatial variables. The standard numerical methods thus incur an exponential increase of computational effort with N, a phenomenon known as the curse of dimensionality; in practice these methods already fail beyond N=2. DFT overcomes this problem by 1) reformulating the N-body problem involving functions of 3N variables in terms of the density, a function of 3 variables, 2) approximating it by a pioneering hybrid approach which keeps important ab initio contributions and re-models the remainder in a data-driven way. This book intends to be an accessible, yet state-of-art text on DFT for graduate students and researchers in applied and computational mathematics, physics, chemistry, and materials science. It introduces and reviews the main models of DFT, covering their derivation and mathematical properties, numerical treatment, and applications.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Density Functional Theory (DFT) has firmly established itself as the workhorse for atomic-level simulations of condensed phases, pure or composite materials and quantum chemical systems. This work offers a rigorous and detailed introduction to the foundations of this theory, up to and including such advanced topics as orbital-dependent functionals as well as both time-dependent and relativistic DFT. Given the many ramifications of contemporary DFT, the text concentrates on the self-contained presentation of the basics of the most widely used DFT variants: this implies a thorough discussion of the corresponding existence theorems and effective single particle equations, as well as of key approximations utilized in implementations. The formal results are complemented by selected quantitative results, which primarily aim at illustrating the strengths and weaknesses of particular approaches or functionals. The structure and content of this book allow a tutorial and modular self-study approach: the reader will find that all concepts of many-body theory which are indispensable for the discussion of DFT - such as the single-particle Green's function or response functions - are introduced step by step, along with the actual DFT material. The same applies to basic notions of solid state theory, such as the Fermi surface of inhomogeneous, interacting systems. In fact, even the language of second quantization is introduced systematically in an Appendix for readers without formal training in many-body theory.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Of all the different areas in computational chemistry, density functional theory (DFT) enjoys the most rapid development. Even at the level of the local density approximation (LDA), which is computationally less demanding, DFT can usually provide better answers than Hartree-Fock formalism for large systems such as clusters and solids. For atoms and molecules, the results from DFT often rival those obtained by ab initio quantum chemistry, partly because larger basis sets can be used. Such encouraging results have in turn stimulated workers to further investigate the formal theory as well as the computational methodology of DFT.This Part II expands on the methodology and applications of DFT. Some of the chapters report on the latest developments (since the publication of Part I in 1995), while others extend the applications to wider range of molecules and their environments. Together, this and other recent review volumes on DFT show that DFT provides an efficient and accurate alternative to traditional quantum chemical methods. Such demonstration should hopefully stimulate frutiful developments in formal theory, better exchange-correlation functionals, and linear scaling methodology.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In the last few years, much attention has been given by theoretical chemists to the development of more accurate model functionals and faster computational techniques including excited electronic states. The 8th International Conference on the Applications of Density Functional Theory to Chemistry and Physics, held in Rome, Italy, on 6-10 September 1999, gathered chemists and physicists to present and discuss state-of-the-art methodological developments and applications of density functional theory (DFT) to increasingly complex systems. The scientists shared their knowledge and experience in DFT, enabling them to face the challenges posed by the needs of high level modeling and simulation in their disciplines. The meeting was opened with an exciting lecture delivered by Nobel laureate W Kohn. The growing use of DFT in studying organic, inorganic and organometallic molecules, clusters and solids provided the basis for the success of the conference, whose main contributions are collected in this invaluable book.

This book was released on 2017-08-15 with total page 82 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The prediction of ground state properties of atomistic systems is of vital importance in technological advances as well as in the physical sciences. Fundamentally, these predictions are based on a quantum-mechanical description of many-electron systems. One of the hitherto most prominent theories for the treatment of such systems is density functional theory (DFT). The main reason for its success is due to its balance of acceptable accuracy with computational efficiency. By now, DFT is applied routinely to compute the properties of atomic, molecular, and solid state systems. The general approach to solve the DFT equations is to use a density-functional approximation (DFA). In Kohn-Sham (KS) DFT, DFAs are applied to the unknown exchangecorrelation (xc) energy. In orbital-free DFT on the other hand, where the total energy is minimized directly with respect to the electron density, a DFA applied to the noninteracting kinetic energy is also required. Unfortunately, central DFAs in DFT fail to qualitatively capture many important aspects of electronic systems. Two prime examples are the description of localized electrons, and the description of systems where electronic edges are present. In this thesis, I use a model system approach to construct a DFA for the electron localization function (ELF). The very same approach is also taken to study the non-interacting kinetic energy density (KED) in the slowly varying limit of inhomogeneous electron densities, where the effect of electronic edges are effectively included. Apart from the work on model systems, extensions of an exchange energy functional with an improved KS orbital description are presented: a scheme for improving its description of energetics of solids, and a comparison of its description of an essential exact exchange feature known as the derivative discontinuity with numerical data for exact exchange. An emerging alternative route towards the prediction of the properties of atomistic systems is machine learning (ML). I present a number of ML methods for the prediction of solid formation energies, with an accuracy that is on par with KS DFT calculations, and with orders-of-magnitude lower computational cost. Att kunna förutsäga egenskaper hos atomistiska system utgör en viktigdel av vår teknologiska utveckling, samt spelar en betydande roll i defysikaliska vetenskaperna. Sådana förutsägelser bygger på en kvantmekaniskbeskrivning av mångelektronsystem. En av de mest framståendeteorierna för att behandla den här typen av system är täthetsfunktionalteorin(DFT). Den främsta orsaken till dess framgång är attden lyckas kombinera skaplig noggrannhet med en bra beräkningseffektivitet.DFT används numera rutinmässigt för att beräkna storheterhos atomer, molekyler, och fasta kroppar. Generellt sett löses ekvationerna inom DFT genom att man inför entäthetsfunktionalapproximation (DFA). I Kohn-Sham (KS) DFT, användsDFAer för att approximera utbytes-korrelationsenergin. Inom orbitalfriDFT, där målet är att direkt minimera den totala energin med avseendepå elektrontätheten, så approximerar man också den icke-interageranderörelseenergin hos elektronerna. Dessvärre så fallerar många centralaDFAer att kvalitativt beskriva många viktiga aspekter hos elektronsystem.Två viktiga exempel är beskrivningen av lokaliserade elektroner,samt beskrivningen av system där det förekommer elektronytor. I denna avhandling använder jag modellsystem för att konstruera enDFAför elektronlokaliseringsfunktionen (ELF). Samma tillvägagångssättappliceras sedan för att studera den kinetiska energitätheten i gränsen avlångsamt varierande elektrontätheter, där effekten av elektronytor effektivtinkluderas. Förutom arbetet som berör modellsystem, så presenterasen utökad variant av en utbytes-energifunktional med en förbättrad KSorbitalbeskrivning: ett schema för att förbättra dess energiegenskaperför solida material, samt en jämförelse av dess beskrivning av en viktigegenskap hos den exakta utbytesenergin, vilket utgörs av diskontinuiteteri dess derivata. Ett mera nyligen uppkommet samt alternativt sätt att kunna förutsägaegenskaper hos atomistiska system utgörs av maskinlärning (ML).Jag presenterar ett antal ML-modeller för att kunna förutsäga formeringsenergierhos fasta material med en noggrannhet som är i linje medresultat som uppnås av beräkningar med hjälp av KS DFT, och med enberäkningseffektivitet som är flera storleksordningar snabbare.
