"Ensemblization" of density functional theory

Tim Gould, Leeor Kronik, Stefano Pittalis

Density functional theory (DFT) has transformed our ability to investigate and understand electronic ground states. In its original formulation, however, DFT is not suited to addre…

State-specific density functionals for excited states from ensembles

Tim Gould, Stephen G Dale, Leeor Kronik +1

We present a first principles strategy for developing state-specific density functional approximations for excited states. We first clarify why approaches based on conventional gro…

Local density approximation for excited states

Tim Gould, Stefano Pittalis

The ground state of an homogeneous electron gas is a paradigmatic state that has been used to model and predict the electronic structure of matter at equilibrium for nearly a centu…

Electronic excited states in extreme limits via ensemble density functionals

Tim Gould, Derk P. Kooi, Paola Gori-Giorgi +1

Density functional theory (DFT) has greatly expanded our ability to affordably compute and understand electronic ground states, by replacing intractable {\em ab initio} calculation…

Nonlinear Light Absorption in Many-Electron Systems Excited by an Instantaneous Electric Field: A Non-Perturbative Approach

Alberto Guandalini, Caterina Cocchi, Stefano Pittalis +2

We study light absorption in many-electron interacting systems beyond the linear regime by using a {\em single} broadband impulse of an electric field in the instantaneous limit. W…
