We present a method to correct the magnetic properties of itinerant systems in local spin density approximation (LSDA) and we apply it to the ferromagnetic-paramagnetic transition under pressure in a typical itinerant system, Ni$_{3}$Al. We obtain a scaling of the critical fluctuations as a function of pressure equivalent to the one obtained within Moryias theory. Moreover we show that in this material the role of the bandstructure is crucial in driving the transition. Finally we calculate the magnetic moment as a function of pressure, and find that it gives a scaling of the Curie temperature that is in good agreement with the experiment. The method can be easily extended to the antiferromagnetic case and applied, for instance, to the Fe-pnictides in order to correct the LSDA magnetic moment.

We develop a density functional treatment of non-interacting abelian anyons, which is capable, in principle, of dealing with a system of a large number of anyons in an external potential. Comparison with exact results for few particles shows that the
model captures the behavior qualitatively and semi-quantitatively, especially in the vicinity of the fermionic statistics. We then study anyons with statistics parameter $1+1/n$, which are thought to condense into a superconducting state. An indication of the superconducting behavior is the mean-field result that, for uniform density systems, the ground state energy increases under the application of an external magnetic field independent of its direction. Our density-functional-theory based analysis does not find that to be the case for finite systems of anyons, which can accommodate a weak external magnetic field through density transfer between the bulk and the boundary rather than through transitions across effective Landau levels, but the Meissner repulsion of the external magnetic field is recovered in the thermodynamic limit as the effect of the boundary becomes negligible. We also consider the quantum Hall effect of anyons, and show that its topological properties, such as the charge and statistics of the excitations and the quantized Hall conductance, arise in a self-consistent fashion.
According to the Hohenberg-Kohn theorem of density-functional theory (DFT), all observable quantities of systems of interacting electrons can be expressed as functionals of the ground-state density. This includes, in principle, the spin polarization
(magnetization) of open-shell systems; the explicit form of the magnetization as a functional of the total density is, however, unknown. In practice, open-shell systems are always treated with spin-DFT, where the basic variables are the spin densities. Here, the relation between DFT and spin-DFT for open-shell systems is illustrated and the exact magnetization density functional is obtained for the half-filled Hubbard trimer. Errors arising from spin-restricted and -unrestricted exact-exchange Kohn-Sham calculations are analyzed and partially cured via the exact magnetization functional.
We present a local density approximation (LDA) for one-dimensional (1D) systems interacting via the soft-Coulomb interaction based on quantum Monte-Carlo calculations. Results for the ground-state energies and ionization potentials of finite 1D syste
ms show excellent agreement with exact calculations, obtained by exploiting the mapping of an $N$-electron system in $d$ dimensions, onto a single electron in $Ntimes d$ dimensions properly symmetrized by the Young diagrams. We conclude that 1D LDA is of the same quality as its three-dimensional (3D) counterpart, and we infer conclusions about 3D LDA. The linear and non-linear time-dependent responses of 1D model systems using LDA, exact exchange, and the exact solution are investigated and show very good agreement in both cases, except for the well known problem of missing double excitations. Consequently, the 3D LDA is expected to be of good quality beyond linear response. In addition, the 1D LDA should prove useful in modeling the interaction of atoms with strong laser fields, where this specific 1D model is often used.
We explore the electronic band structure of free standing monolayers of chromium trihalides, CrXtextsubscript{3}{, X= Cl, Br, I}, within an advanced emph{ab-initio} theoretical approach based in the use of Greens function functionals. We compare the
local density approximation with the quasi-particle self-consistent emph{GW} approximation (QSemph{GW}) and its self-consistent extension (QS$Gwidehat{W}$) by solving the particle-hole ladder Bethe-Salpeter equations to improve the effective interaction emph{W}. We show that at all levels of theory, the valence band consistently changes shape in the sequence Cl{textrightarrow}Br{textrightarrow}I, and the valence band maximum shifts from the M point to the $Gamma$ point. However, the details of the transition, the one-particle bandgap, and the eigenfunctions change considerably going up the ladder to higher levels of theory. The eigenfunctions become more directional, and at the M point there is a strong anisotropy in the effective mass. Also the dynamic and momentum dependent self energy shows that QS$Gwidehat{W}$ adds to the localization of the systems in comparison to the QSemph{GW} thereby leading to a narrower band and reduced amount of halogens in the valence band manifold.
Spin-triplet superconductors are of extensive current interest because they can host topological state and Majorana ferimons important for quantum computation. The uranium based heavyfermion superconductor UTe$_2$ has been argued as a spin-triplet su
perconductor similar to UGe$_2$, URhGe, and UCoGe, where the superconducting phase is near (or coexists with) a ferromagnetic (FM) instability and spin-triplet electron pairing is driven by FM spin fluctuations. Here we use neutron scattering to show that although UTe$_2$ exhibits no static magnetic order down to 0.3 K, its magnetism is dominated by incommensurate spin fluctuations near antiferromagnetic (AF) ordering wave vector and extends to at least 2.6 meV. We are able to understand the dominant incommensurate spin fluctuations of UTe$_2$ in terms of its electronic structure calculated using a combined density functional and dynamic mean field theory.
