Introduction to Electronic Structure Theory
Electronic Structure Theory describes the motions of electrons in atoms or molecules. Generally this is done in the context of the Born-Oppenheimer Approximation, which says that electrons are so much lighter (and therefore faster) than nuclei that they will find their optimal distribution for any given nuclear configuration. The electronic energy at each nuclear configuration is the potential ...
متن کاملElectronic Structure: Density Functional Theory
Density functional theory (DFT) is a successful theory to calculate the electronic structure of atoms, molecules, and solids. Its goal is the quantitative understanding of materials properties from the fundamental laws of quantum mechanics. Traditional electronic structure methods attempt to find approximate solutions to the Schrödinger equation of N interacting electrons moving in an external,...
متن کاملCholesky decomposition techniques in electronic structure theory
We review recently developed methods to efficiently utilize the Cholesky decomposition technique in electronic structure calculations. The review starts with a brief introduction to the basics of the Cholesky decomposition technique. Subsequently, examples of applications of the technique to ab inito procedures are presented. The technique is demonstrated to be a special type of a resolution-of...
متن کاملRange Correlation Models in Electronic Structure Theory
Short-Range Correlation Models in Electronic Structure Theory by Matthew Bryant Goldey Doctor of Philosophy in Chemistry University of California, Berkeley Professor Martin Head-Gordon, Chair Correlation methods within electronic structure theory focus on recovering the exact electronelectron interaction from the mean-field reference. For most chemical systems, including dynamic correlation, th...
متن کاملQuantum critical benchmark for electronic structure theory
Two electrons at the threshold of ionization represent a severe test case for electronic structure theory. Variational methods can yield highly accurate energies, but may be less accurate for other operators of interest. A pseudospectral method yields very accurate expectations values for the two-electron ion with nuclear charge at and close to the critical value which yields zero ionization en...
