Unified Framework for Functional Theories of Quantum Systems

Chih-Chun Wang, Julia Liebert, Markus Penz +1

We introduce and study a unified framework for density-functional theory and its variants for quantum systems on finite-dimensional Hilbert spaces. These theories seek to reduce th…

Capturing electron correlation at mean-field cost: Assessment of i-DMFT and the underlying correlation conjecture

Paul G. Graf, Florian Matz, Lexin Ding +3

Accurately treating strong electron correlation in quantum chemistry typically requires multireference wave-function methods with steep computational scaling. The recently proposed…

Operational bounds and diagnostics for coherence in energy transfer

Julia Liebert, Gregory D. Scholes

Excitation energy transfer in light-harvesting aggregates is highly efficient, yet whether quantum coherence plays an operational role in transport remains debated. A central chall…

Operational impact of quantum resources in chemical dynamics

Julia Liebert, Gregory D. Scholes

Quantum coherence and other non-classical features are widely discussed in chemical dynamics, yet it remains difficult to quantify when such resources are operationally relevant fo…

Refining ensemble -representability of one-body density matrices from partial information

Julia Liebert, Anna O. Schouten, Irma Avdic +2

The -representability problem places fundamental constraints on reduced density matrices (RDMs) that originate from physical many-fermion quantum states. Motivated by recent dev…

Spin adaptation of the cumulant expansions of reduced density matrices

Julia Liebert, Christian Schilling, David A. Mazziotti

We develop a systematic framework for the spin adaptation of the cumulants of p-particle reduced density matrices (RDMs), with explicit constructions for p = 1 to 3. These spin-ada…

A toolbox of spin-adapted generalized Pauli constraints

Julia Liebert, Yannick Lemke, Murat Altunbulak +3

We establish a toolbox for studying and applying spin-adapted generalized Pauli constraints (GPCs) in few-electron quantum systems. By exploiting the spin symmetry of realistic …

Solving one-body ensemble N-representability problems with spin

Julia Liebert, Federico Castillo, Jean-Philippe Labbé +2

The Pauli exclusion principle is fundamental to understanding electronic quantum systems. It namely constrains the expected occupancies of orbitals according to $0 \leq…

Refining and relating fundamentals of functional theory

Julia Liebert, Adam Yanis Chaou, Christian Schilling

To advance the foundation of one-particle reduced density matrix functional theory (1RDMFT) we refine and relate some of its fundamental features and underlying concepts. We define…

An exact one-particle theory of bosonic excitations: From a generalized Hohenberg-Kohn theorem to convexified N-representability

Julia Liebert, Christian Schilling

Motivated by the Penrose-Onsager criterion for Bose-Einstein condensation we propose a functional theory for targeting low-lying excitation energies of bosonic quantum systems thro…

Comment on "Self-Consistent-Field Method for Correlated Many-Electron Systems with an Entropic Cumulant Energy"

Lexin Ding, Julia Liebert, Christian Schilling

In [Phys. Rev. Lett. 128, 013001 (2022)] a novel ground state method was proposed. It has been suggested that this -DMFT would be a method within one-particle reduced density ma…

An effective solution to convex -body -representability

Federico Castillo, Jean-Philippe Labbé, Julia Liebert +3

From a geometric point of view, Pauli's exclusion principle defines a hypersimplex. This convex polytope describes the compatibility of -fermion and -fermion density matrices…

Functional Theory for Bose-Einstein Condensates

Julia Liebert, Christian Schilling

One-particle reduced density matrix functional theory would potentially be the ideal approach for describing Bose-Einstein condensates. It namely replaces the macroscopically compl…
