We propose a new approach to determine the strength of the charge symmetry breaking (CSB) term in the framework of Skyrme density functional theory. It is shown that once textit{ab initio} calculations are available including accurate description of isospin symmetry breaking terms in medium and heavy nuclei, the mass difference of mirror nuclei as well as the neutron-skin thickness of doubly closed shell nuclei can be used to constrain the strength of CSB interaction with an uncertainty less than $ 6 , % $, separately from other isospin breaking forces. This method opens a new vista of textit{ab initio} nuclear energy density functionals.

In this work we present the first steps towards benchmarking isospin symmetry breaking in ab initio nuclear theory for calculations of superallowed Fermi $beta$-decay. Using the valence-space in-medium similarity renormalization group, we calculate b and c coefficients of the isobaric multiplet mass equation, starting from two different Hamiltonians constructed from chiral effective field theory. We compare results to experimental measurements for all T=1 isobaric analogue triplets of relevance to superallowed $beta$-decay for masses A=10 to A=74 and find an overall agreement within approximately 250 keV of experimental data for both b and c coefficients. A greater level of accuracy, however, is obtained by a phenomenological Skyrme interaction or a classical charged-sphere estimate. Finally, we show that evolution of the valence-space operator does not meaningfully improve the quality of the coefficients with respect to experimental data, which indicates that higher-order many-body effects are likely not responsible for the observed discrepancies.

I propose a simple and manageable method that allows for deriving coupling constants of model energy density functionals (EDFs) directly from ab initio calculations performed for finite fermion systems. A proof-of-principle application allows for lin king properties of finite nuclei, determined by using the nuclear nonlocal Gogny functional, to the coupling constants of the quasilocal Skyrme functional. The method does not rely on properties of infinite fermion systems but on the ab initio calculations in finite systems. It also allows for quantifying merits of different model EDFs in describing the ab initio results.
The Charge-Symmetry-Breaking (CSB) character of the nucleon-nucleon interaction is well established. This work presents two different ways of introducing such effects into a nuclear Energy Density Functional (EDF). CSB terms are either coming from th e effective theory expansion or are derived from electromagnetic mixing of $rho^0$ and $omega$ mesons. These terms are then introduced to Skyrme and Quark-Meson-Coupling EDFs, respectively.

We discuss the construction of a nuclear Energy Density Functional (EDF) from ab initio calculations, and we advocate the need of a methodical approach that is free from ad hoc assumptions. The equations of state (EoS) of symmetric nuclear and pure n eutron matter are computed using the chiral NNLO$_{rm sat}$ and the phenomenological AV4$^prime$+UIX$_{c}$ Hamiltonians as inputs in the Self-consistent Greens Function (SCGF) and Auxiliary Field Diffusion Monte Carlo (AFDMC) methods, respectively. We propose a convenient parametrization of the EoS as a function of the Fermi momentum and fit it on the SCGF and AFDMC calculations. We apply the ab initio-based EDF to carry out an analysis of the binding energies and charge radii of different nuclei in the local density approximation. The NNLO$_{rm sat}$-based EDF produces encouraging results, whereas the AV4$^prime$+UIX$_{c}$-based one is farther from experiment. Possible explanations of these different behaviors are suggested, and the importance of gradient and spin-orbit terms is analyzed. Our work paves the way for a practical and systematic way to merge ab initio nuclear theory and DFT, while at the same time it sheds light on some of the critical aspects of this procedure.
We present the first application of a new approach, proposed in [Journal of Physics G: Nuclear and Particle Physics, 43, 04LT01 (2016)] to derive coupling constants of the Skyrme energy density functional (EDF) from ab initio Hamiltonian. By perturbi ng the ab initio Hamiltonian with several functional generators defining the Skyrme EDF, we create a set of metadata that is then used to constrain the coupling constants of the functional. We use statistical analysis to obtain such an ab initio-equivalent Skyrme EDF. We find that the resulting functional describes properties of atomic nuclei and infinite nuclear matter quite poorly. This may point out to the necessity of building up the ab initio-equivalent functionals from more sophisticated generators. However, we also indicate that the current precision of the ab initio calculations may be insufficient for deriving meaningful nuclear EDFs.
