  3. Density Functional Theory • Quantum Mechanics • Many-body wave functions; • Density Functional Theory • Density clouds; The many-particle system can be described by a functional of density distribution in the three-dimensional space.

  4. Hohenberg-Kohn Theorem (1) The first theorem Hohenberg & Kohn (1964) Density ρ(r) determines v(r) , except for arbitrary choice of zero point. A system with a one-body potential Existence of one-to-one mapping:            Strictly speaking, one-to-one or one-to-none v-representative

  5. Here , we assume the non-degenerate g.s. Reductio ad absurdum: Assuming differentandproduces the same ground state V and V’ are identical except for constant. → Contradiction

  6. Again, reductio ad absurdum assuming different states with produces the same density Replacing V ↔ V’ Contradiction ! Here, we assume that the densityis v-representative. For degenerate case, we can prove one-to-one

  7. Hohenberg-Kohn Theorem (2) The second theorem There is an energy density functional and the variational principle determines energy and density of the ground state. Any physical quantity must be a functional of density. From theorem (1) Many-body wave function is a functional of densityρ(r). Energy functional for external potential v (r) Variational principle holds for v-representative density : v-independent universal functional

  8. The following variation leads to all the ground-state properties. In principle, any physical quantity of the ground state should be a functional of density. Variation with respect to many-body wave functions ↓ Variation with respect to one-body density ↓ Physical quantity

  9. v-representative→ N-representative Levy (1979, 1982) The “N-representative density” means that it has a corresponding many-body wave function. Ritz’ Variational Principle Decomposed into two steps

  10. Positive smoothρ(r) is N-representative. Gilbert (1975), Lieb (1982) Harriman’s construction (1980) For 1-dimensional case (x1≤ x ≤ x2), we can construct a Slater determinant from the following orbitals.

  11. Problem 1: Prove that a Slater determinant with the N different orbitals gives the density (1) (i) Show the following properties: (ii) Show the orthonormality of orbitals: (iii) Prove the Slater determinant (1) produces

  12. Density functional theory at finite temperature Canonical Ensemble Grand Canonical Ensemble

  13. How to construct DFT Model of Thomas-Fermi-Dirac-Weizsacker Missing shell effects Local density approximation (LDA) for kinetic energy is a serious problem. Kinetic energy functional without LDA Kohn-Sham Theory (1965) Essential idea Calculate non-local part of kinetic energy utilizing a non-interacting reference system (virtual Fermi system).

  14. Introduction of reference system Estimate the kinetic energy in a non-interacting system with a potential The ground state is a Slater determinant with the lowest N orbitals: v → N-representative

  15. Minimize Ts[ρ] with a constraint on ρ(r) Levy & Perdew (1985) Orbitals that minimize Ts[ρ] are eigenstates of a single-particle Hamiltonian with a local potential. If these are the lowest N orbitals v →v-representative Other N orbitals  → Not v-representative

  16. Kohn-Sham equation includes effects of interaction as well as a part of kinetic energy not present in Ts Perform variation with respect to density in terms of orbitals Фi KS canonical equation

  17. Problem 2: Prove that the following self-consistent procedure gives the minimum of the energy: (1) (2) (3) Repeat the procedure (1) and (2) until the convergence. * Show assuming the convergence.

  18. KS-DFT for electrons Exchange-correlation energy It is customary to use the LDA for the exchange-correlation energy. Its functional form is determined by results of a uniform electron gas: High-density limit (perturbation) Low-density limit (Monte-Carlo calculation) In addition, gradient correction, self-energy correction can be added. Spin polarization→Local spin-densty approx. (LSDA)

  19. Example for Exchange-correlation energy Perdew-Zunger (1981): Based on high-density limit given by Gell-Mann & Brueckner low-density limit calculated by Ceperley (Monte Carlo) Local (Slater) approximation In Atomic unit

  22. Nuclear Density Functional Hohenberg‐Kohn’s theorem Kohn-Sham equation (q = n, p)

  23. Skyrme density functional Vautherin & Brink, PRC 5 (1972) 626 Historically, we derive a density functional with the Hartree-Fock procedure from an effective Hamiltonian. or Uniform nuclear matter with N=Z Necessary to determine all the parameters.
