Current Densities in Density Functional Theory
It is well known that any given density ρ(x) can be realized by a determinantal wave function for N particles. The question addressed here is whether any given density ρ(x) and current density j(x) can be simultaneously realized by a (finite kinetic energy) determinantal wave function. In case the velocity field v(x) = j(x)/ρ(x) is curlfree, we provide a solution for all N , and we provide an e...
متن کاملGedanken densities and exact constraints in density functional theory.
Approximations to the exact density functional for the exchange-correlation energy of a many-electron ground state can be constructed by satisfying constraints that are universal, i.e., valid for all electron densities. Gedanken densities are designed for the purpose of this construction, but need not be realistic. The uniform electron gas is an old gedanken density. Here, we propose a spherica...
متن کاملSynergy between pair coupled cluster doubles and pair density functional theory.
Pair coupled cluster doubles (pCCD) has been recently studied as a method capable of accounting for static correlation with low polynomial cost. We present three combinations of pCCD with Kohn-Sham functionals of the density and on-top pair density (the probability of finding two electrons on top of each other) to add dynamic correlation to pCCD without double counting. With a negligible increa...
متن کاملEscaping the symmetry dilemma through a pair-density interpretation of spin-density functional theory.
In the standard interpretation of spin-density functional theory, a self-consistent Kohn-Sham calculation within the local spin density (LSD) or generalized gradient approximation (GGA) leads to a prediction of the total energy E, total electron density n(r) =n~(r)+n ~(r), and spin magnetization density m(r)=n~(r) —n~(r). This interpretation encounters a serious symmetry dilemma" for H2, Cr2, a...
متن کاملOn-Top Pair-Density Interpretation of Spin Density Functional Theory, with Applications to Magnetism
Ž . The on-top pair density P r, r gives the probability that one electron will be found on top Ž . of another at position r. We find that the local spin density LSD and generalized Ž . gradient GGA approximations for exchange and correlation predict this quantity with remarkable accuracy. We show how this fact and the usual sum-rule arguments explain the success of these approximations for rea...
