- Density Functional Theory (DFT).



Introduction: What is a Kohn-Sham calculation?



Functionals: What is a functional? Functional derivatives. Euler-Lagrange equations.



One electron systems: Variational principle, trial wave-functions.



Two electron systems: Antisymmetry, Hartree-Fock and correlation.



Many electron systems: ground state and Hartree-Fock.



Density Functional Theory: Hohenberg-Kohn theorem and Thomas-Fermi.



Kohn-Sham equations: Exchange and correlations.



The Local Density Approximation: uniform electron gas.



Exchange-correlation hole: Density matrices and holes, Hooke’s atom and Transferability of a hole.

Overview of electronic structure codes



Hands on Quantum-espresso: Plane waves; Pseudo-potential calculations: total energy,

bands, relaxations; Non-collinear calculations: magnetism and spin-orbit coupling; Density

functional perturbation theory: phonons and external fields.
