An Introduction to Density Functional Theory

0 are readily obtained but the computational cost of such improvements is very high and scales prohibitively quickly with the number of electrons treated (for an excellent introduction see ref. [4]). In addition, accurate solutions require a very flexible description of the wavefunction’s spatial variation, i.e. a large and basis set is required
