Time-dependent density-functional theory beyond the adiabatic approximation: insights from a two-electron model system.
Most applications of time-dependent density-functional theory (TDDFT) use the adiabatic local-density approximation (ALDA) for the dynamical exchange-correlation potential V(xc)(r,t). An exact (i.e., nonadiabatic) extension of the ground-state LDA into the dynamical regime leads to a V(xc)(r,t) with a memory, which causes the electron dynamics to become dissipative. To illustrate and explain th...
متن کاملTime-dependent density-functional and reduced density-matrix methods for few electrons: Exact versus adiabatic approximations
To address the impact of electron correlations in the linear and non-linear response regimes of interacting many-electron systems exposed to time-dependent external fields, we study one-dimensional (1D) systems where the interacting problem is solved exactly by exploiting the mapping of the 1D N -electron problem onto an N -dimensional single electron problem. We analyze the performance of the ...
متن کاملAdiabatic approximation in nonperturbative time-dependent density-functional theory.
We construct the exact exchange-correlation potential of time-dependent density-functional theory and the approximation to it that is adiabatic but exact otherwise. For the strong-field double ionization of the Helium atom these two potentials are virtually identical. Thus, memory effects play a negligible role in this paradigm process of nonlinear, nonperturbative electron dynamics. We identif...
متن کاملDensity and Polarization Profiles of Dipolar Hard Ellipsoids Confined between Hard Walls: A Density Functional Theory Approach
The density and polarization profiles of the dipolar hard ellipsoids confined between hard walls are studied using the density functional theory (DFT). The Hyper-Netted Chain (HNC) approximation is used to write excess grand potential of the system with respect to the bulk value. The number density is expanded up to zero and first order in polarization to find the results. For the zero order in...
متن کاملExchange-correlation potentials and local energies per particle along nonlinear adiabatic connections
We study nonlinear adiabatic connection paths in density-functional theory using modified electron–electron interactions that perform a long-range/short-range separation of the Coulomb interaction. These adiabatic connections allow us to define short-range exchange–correlation potentials and short-range local exchange–correlation energies per particle which we have calculated accurately for the...
