The dielectric theory may be expressed in a nonlocal form based on the definition of the susceptibility and permittivity in a form that makes these physical quantities the kernel of appropriate integral equations. 

Taking into account the definitions given for the Laplace transforms of the kernels in Eqs. (3.382), (3.386), and (3.389), we can put the stationary IET equations in exactly the same form as in the Markovian theory ... 

It is remarkable that the integral equation (3.693) proved to be formally exact [51], so that all theories differ only in their definition of the kernel, given as E(f) or V(.v). Sometimes the kernel is explicitly defined in the original works, but more often the reduction to the integral form and extraction of the kernel is a separate problem solved in Ref. 46. In a few cases this procedure was nontrivial and required rather long and sophisticated calculations that are of no interest except for the final results represented by the Laplace transformed kernels S in Table V. 

In a stochastic approach the frequency-depiendent friction appears in the definition of the energy dependence of the relaxation rate P(E), defined by Eq. (4.12), and is evaluated for a Morse potential by Eq. (4.14). In this section the applicability of these relationships and the friction kernel B(d)( )) of Eq. (3.27) is tested in a variety of approaches for the case of u = 1, a diatomic. The use of frequency-dependent friction in the evaluation of D(E) for a system with many degrees of freedom is an area of ongoing activity. While many of the features of a stochastic approach to vibrational relaxation are found in inelastic scattering theories or master equation kernels, it is the characteristic of... 

The purpose of this work is to start from the basic equations of density functional theory to describe the changes in the energy associated with the transition from one ground-state to another, in terms of different sets of variables. In this process one will find the natural definitions of the hardness and softness kernels, the local hardness, the local softness, the global hardness and the global softness [23]. Then, we will proceed to establish their relation with ionization potentials and electron affinities, in order to confirm their behavior as a measure of chemical hardness or softness [14, 24]. Finally, this theoretical framework will be used to analyze the maximum hardness and the HSAB principles. 

This quantity can be viewed as a generalization of Fukui s frontier MO concept and plays a key role in linking Frontier MO Theory and the HSAB principle. It can be interpreted either as the sensitivity of a system s chemical potential to an external perturbation at a particular point r, or as the change of the electron density p(r) at each point r when the total number of electrons is changed. The former definition has recently been implemented to evaluate this function,but the derivative of the density with respect to the number of electrons remains by far the most widely-used definition. The second order derivative of the energy with respect to the external potential is the linear response function xCi tO called the polarizability kernel...
