We call the Fukui function / (r) the HOMO response. Equation 24.39 is demonstrated as follows. The PhomoW is the so-called Kohn-Sham Fukui function denoted as f (r) [32]. According to the first-order perturbation theory, one has... 

It is worth noting that screened response x/C r ) can be computed from the Kohn-Sham orbital wave functions and energies using standard first-order perturbation theory [3]... 

A DFT-based third order perturbation theory approach includes the FC term by FPT. Based on the perturbed nonrelativistic Kohn-Sham orbitals spin polarized by the FC operator, a sum over states treatment (SOS-DFPT) calculates the spin orbit corrections (35-37). This approach, in contrast to that of Nakatsuji et al., includes both electron correlation and local origins in the calculations of spin orbit effects on chemical shifts. In contrast to these approaches that employed the finite perturbation method the SO corrections to NMR properties can be calculated analytically from... 

In Kohn-Sham DFT based approaches, expressions that are of similar structure as Eqs. (9a) and (9b) are obtained, but in the form of contributions from all occupied Kohn-Sham MOs The excited-state wavefunctions are at the same time formally replaced by the unoccupied MOs, and the many-electron perturbation operators /T(M41, etc. by their one-electron counterparts //(M-41, etc. Orbital energies e and ea formally substitute the total energies of the states (see later). Thus, similar interpretations of NMR parameters can be worked out in which the highest occupied MO-lowest unoccupied MO gap (HLG) plays a highly important role. It must be emphasized, though, that there is no one-to-one correspondence between the excited states of the SOS equations and the unoccupied orbitals which enter the DFT expressions, nor between excitation energies and orbital energy differences, i.e., there are no one-determinantal wavefunctions in Kohn-Sham DFT perturbation theory which approximate the reference and excited states.

It is our purpose to briefly review expansion (1) through the adiabatic perturbation theory of Gorling and Levy [11], which arrives at the formal expression for the second-order energy, Ec(2)[n], in terms of Kohn-Sham orbitals. 

Next, we shall assume that v(r) is the Kohn-Sham potential for the density n(r). In other words, v(r)=v0([n] r) and H0QC=H0[n], As a result, the eigenfunctions and eigenvalues in Eqs.(19) and (28) are the same. By using perturbation theory for small enough a, with Z=A, Ivanov and Levy [26] have developed an expansion for the HF density, i.e. 

The effects of solvation have been studied by an implementation of an ellipsoid cavity model into Kohn-Sham theory [94]. The lowering of the activation energy by water solvation of the allyl vinyl ether has been calculated to be 0.3 kcal/mol by this method. This value is considerably lower than the results from other calculations on the same system using cavity models [95], free energy perturbation [96], or QM/MM calculations [97] as well as the values...
