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…

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 \le…

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…
