2 1. Hartree-Fock theory Density Functional Theory 2. Hohenberg-Kohn theorem 3. Kohn-Sham method 4. Exchange-correlation correlation functionals

3 Independent Particle Model 1. Hartree-Fock theory 2-electron operator is approximately replaced by a 1-electron operator N N 1 rij u( ri ) ij i1 1 2 Z u() () () 2 R r r r r Does u(r) exist that gives exact energy (and electron density) keeping the independent particle model? Yes! Density functional theory Kohn-Sham method

4 2. Hohenberg-Kohn theorem Definition of electron density Integration of probability amplitude over (N 1) spatial and all spin coordinates gives electron density 2 () r N d1dr2d2d r N d N 1st Hohenberg-Kohn theorem Electron density ρ(r) determines external potential v(r) This means that ρ(r) determines Ψ and E (via v(r)) E[ ] V [ ] T[ ] V [ ] ne ( r) v( r)d rt[ ] Vee[ ] 1 1 J[ ] ( ) ( )d d r1 r2 r1 r2 2 r 12 ee

6 3. Kohn-Sham method Non-interacting system: N electrons and orbitals {φ i } 1 N 2 TS[ ] i i i 2 N () r i () r These are exact for non-interacting systems i 2 Orbitals {φ i } follows 1-electron Schrödinger equation 1 2 vs () i() i() 2 r r r and the energy is given by E[ ] T [ ] v( r) ( r)d r (i) S

7 Interacting system E[ ] v( r) ( r)d rt[ ] V [ ] ee J v () r ()d r r TS [ ] J [ ] T [ ] TS [ ] Vee [ ] J [ ] v() r ()d r rt [ ] J[ ] E [ ] (ii) S xc known functional unknown functional Exchange-correlation functional E [ ] T[ ] T [ ] V [ ] J[ ] xc S ee Exchange-correlation potential v xc Exc [ ] [ ]

8 From (i), for non-interacting systems, the 2nd Hohenberg-Kohn theorem gives TS[ ] vs () r Hence, (ii) gives ( r) TS[ ] v () r d r vxc () r r r () r v eff TS[ ] () r () r Under the external potential, v S (r) = v eff (r), equation for the interacting system is same as that for the non-interacting system Thus, 1-electron equation (Kohn-Sham equation) about v eff (r) becomes 1 2 veff () i() i() 2 r r r and the density becomesn () r i () r i 2
