Density functional theory many-electron system energy

The ab initio methods used by most investigators include Hartree-Fock (FFF) and Density Functional Theory (DFT) [6, 7]. An ab initio method typically uses one of many basis sets for the solution of a particular problem. These basis sets are discussed in considerable detail in references [1] and [8]. DFT is based on the proof that the ground state electronic energy is determined completely by the electron density [9]. Thus, there is a direct relationship between electron density and the energy of a system. DFT calculations are extremely popular, as they provide reliable molecular structures and are considerably faster than FFF methods where correlation corrections (MP2) are included. Although intermolecular interactions in ion-pairs are dominated by dispersion interactions, DFT (B3LYP) theory lacks this term [10-14]. FFowever, DFT theory is quite successful in representing molecular structure, which is usually a primary concern. [Pg.153]

In the Hartree-Fock approach, the many-body wave function in form of a Slater determinant plays the key role in the theory. For instance, the Hartree-Fock equations are derived by minimization of the total energy expressed in terms of this determinantal wave function. In density functional theory (3,4), the fundamental role is taken over by an observable quantity, the electron density. An important theorem of density functional theory states that the correct ground state density, n(r), determines rigorously all electronic properties of the system, in particular its total energy. The totd energy of a system can be expressed as a functional of the density n (r) and this functional, E[n (r)], is minimized by the ground state density. [Pg.50]

The study of behavior of many-electron systems such as atoms, molecules, and solids under the action of time-dependent (TD) external fields, which includes interaction with radiation, has been an important area of research. In the linear response regime, where one considers the external held to cause a small perturbation to the initial ground state of the system, one can obtain many important physical quantities such as polarizabilities, dielectric functions, excitation energies, photoabsorption spectra, van der Waals coefficients, etc. In many situations, for example, in the case of interaction of many-electron systems with strong laser held, however, it is necessary to go beyond linear response for investigation of the properties. Since a full theoretical description based on accurate solution of TD Schrodinger equation is not yet within the reach of computational capabilities, new methods which can efficiently handle the TD many-electron correlations need to be explored, and time-dependent density functional theory (TDDFT) is one such valuable approach. [Pg.71]

Density functional theory (DFT) uses the electron density p(r) as the basic source of information of an atomic or molecular system instead of the many-electron wave function T [1-7]. The theory is based on the Hohenberg-Kohn theorems, which establish the one-to-one correspondence between the ground state electron density of the system and the external potential v(r) (for an isolated system, this is the potential due to the nuclei) [6]. The electron density uniquely determines the number of electrons N of the system [6]. These theorems also provide a variational principle, stating that the exact ground state electron density minimizes the exact energy functional F[p(r)]. [Pg.539]
