A recent paper (Phys. Rev A. 75, 022513 (2007), arXiv:cond-mat/0602020) challenges exact time-dependent density functional theory (TDDFT) on several grounds. We explain why these criticisms are either irrelevant or incorrect, and that TDDFT is both formally exact and predictive.
I show that the so-called causality paradox of time-dependent density functional theory arises from an incorrect formulation of the variational principle for the time evolution of the density. The correct formulation not only resolves the paradox in
real time, but also leads to a new expression for the causal exchange-correlation kernel in terms of Berry curvature. Furthermore, I show that all the results that were previously derived from symmetries of the action functional remain valid in the present formulation. Finally, I develop a model functional theory which explicitly demonstrates the workings of the new formulation.
Linear-response time-dependent density-functional theory (TDDFT) can describe excitonic features in the optical spectra of insulators and semiconductors, using exchange-correlation (xc) kernels behaving as $-1/k^{2}$ to leading order. We show how exc
itons can be modeled in real-time TDDFT, using an xc vector potential constructed from approximate, long-range corrected xc kernels. We demonstrate for various materials that this real-time approach is consistent with frequency-dependent linear response, gives access to femtosecond exciton dynamics following short-pulse excitations, and can be extended with some caution into the nonlinear regime.
This comment criticizes the above paper by Xiao-Yin Pan and Viraht Sahni. It is shown that their formulation of Physical Current Density Functional Theory is, at best, a garbled reformulation of the Vignale-Rasolt current-density functional theory, a
nd, at worst, a potential source of mistakes insofar as it complicates the formulation of the variational principle and prevents the constrained search construction of the universal functional.
The optical spectra of two-dimensional (2D) periodic systems provide a challenge for time-dependent density-functional theory (TDDFT) because of the large excitonic effects in these materials. In this work we explore how accurately these spectra can
be described within a pure Kohn-Sham time-dependent density-functional framework, i.e., a framework in which no theory beyond Kohn-Sham density-functional theory, such as $GW$, is required to correct the Kohn-Sham gap. To achieve this goal we adapted a recent approach we developed for the optical spectra of 3D systems [Cavo, Berger, Romaniello, Phys. Rev. B 101, 115109 (2020)] to those of 2D systems. Our approach relies on the link between the exchange-correlation kernel of TDDFT and the derivative discontinuity of ground-state density-functional theory, which guarantees a correct quasi-particle gap, and on a generalization of the polarization functional [Berger, Phys. Rev. Lett., 115, 137402 (2015)], which describes the excitonic effects. We applied our approach to two prototypical 2D monolayers, $h$-BN and MoS$_2$. We find that our protocol gives a qualitative good description of the optical spectrum of $h$-BN, whereas improvements are needed for MoS$_2$ to describe the intensity of the excitonic peaks.
