Introduction to First-Principles Method
Density functional theory Total energy: a unique functional of electron density The minimum value of the total energy functional is the ground-state energy of the system, and the density that yields this minimum value is the exact single-particle ground-state density. (Hohenberg and Kohn, 1964) How to replace the many-electron problem by an
