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.

The solution of complex many-body lattice models can often be found by defining an energy functional of the relevant density of the problem. For instance, in the case of the Hubbard model the spin-resolved site occupation is enough to describe the sy
stem total energy. Similarly to standard density functional theory, however, the exact functional is unknown and suitable approximations need to be formulated. By using a deep-learning neural network trained on exact-diagonalization results we demonstrate that one can construct an exact functional for the Hubbard model. In particular, we show that the neural network returns a ground-state energy numerically indistinguishable from that obtained by exact diagonalization and, most importantly, that the functional satisfies the two Hohenberg-Kohn theorems: for a given ground-state density it yields the external potential and it is fully variational in the site occupation.
We present a rigorous formulation of generalized Kohn-Sham density-functional theory. This provides a straightforward Kohn-Sham description of many-body systems based not only on particle-density but also on any other observable. We illustrate the fo
rmalism for the case of a particle-density based description of a nonrelativistic many-electron system. We obtain a simple diagrammatic expansion of the exchange-correlation functional in terms of Kohn-Sham single-particle orbitals and energies; develop systematic Kohn-Sham formulation for one-electron propagators and many-body excitation energies. This work is ideally suited for practical applications and provides a rigorous basis for a systematic development of the existing body of first-principles calculations in a controllable fashion.
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 present in full detail a newly developed formalism enabling density functional perturbation theory (DFPT) calculations from a DFT+$U$ ground state. The implementation includes ultrasoft pseudopotentials and is valid for both insulating and metalli
c systems. It aims at fully exploiting the versatility of DFPT combined with the low-cost DFT+$U$ functional. This allows to avoid computationally intensive frozen-phonon calculations when DFT+$U$ is used to eliminate the residual electronic self-interaction from approximate functionals and to capture the localization of valence electrons e.g. on $d$ or $f$ states. In this way, the effects of electronic localization (possibly due to correlations) are consistently taken into account in the calculation of specific phonon modes, Born effective charges, dielectric tensors and in quantities requiring well converged sums over many phonon frequencies, as phonon density of states and free energies. The new computational tool is applied to two representative systems, namely CoO, a prototypical transition metal monoxide and LiCoO$_2$, a material employed for the cathode of Li-ion batteries. The results show the effectiveness of our formalism to capture in a quantitatively reliable way the vibrational properties of systems with localized valence electrons.
We propose a computationally efficient approach to the nonadiabatic time-dependent density functional theory (TDDFT) which is based on a representation of the frequency-dependent exchange correlation kernel as a response of a set of damped oscillator
s. The requirements to computational resources needed to implement our approach do not differ from those of the standard real-time TDDFT in the adiabatic local density approximation (ALDA). Thus, our result offers an exciting opportunity to take into account temporal nonlocality and memory effects in calculations with TDDFT in quantum chemistry and solid state physics for unprecedentedly low costs.
