Coarse-graining Kohn–Sham Density Functional Theory
We present a real-space formulation for coarse-graining Kohn–Sham Density Functional Theory that significantly speeds up the analysis of material defects without appreciable loss of accuracy. The approximation scheme consists of two steps. First, we develop a linear-scaling method that enables the direct evaluation of the electron density without the need to evaluate individual orbitals. We ach...
متن کاملOptimized local basis set for Kohn-Sham density functional theory
We develop a technique for generating a set of optimized local basis functions to solve models in the Kohn–Sham density functional theory for both insulating and metallic systems. The optimized local basis functions are obtained by solving a minimization problem in an admissible set determined by a large number of primitive basis functions. Using the optimized local basis set, the electron ener...
متن کاملElement orbitals for Kohn-Sham density functional theory
We present a method to discretize the Kohn-Sham Hamiltonian matrix in the pseudopotential framework by a small set of basis functions automatically contracted from a uniform basis set such as plane waves. Each basis function is localized around an element, which is a small part of the global domain containing multiple atoms. We demonstrate that the resulting basis set achieves meV accuracy for ...
متن کاملHot or Dense Matter ∗
I review some of the properties of hot and/or dense relativistic matter. I've been asked to review hot and/or dense matter. As a general rule, most particle physicists aren't that familiar with the behavior of quantum field theory at finite temperature and density. We've all been introduced to how to think about systems of a few relativistic particles with given energies, and how to describe su...
متن کاملSelf-averaging stochastic Kohn-Sham density-functional theory.
We formulate the Kohn-Sham density functional theory (KS-DFT) as a statistical theory in which the electron density is determined from an average of correlated stochastic densities in a trace formula. The key idea is that it is sufficient to converge the total energy per electron to within a predefined statistical error in order to obtain reliable estimates of the electronic band structure, the...
