Kohn-Sham approximation scheme for an interacting Bose-condensed gas

Abstract

The grand canonical density functional theory for inhomogeneous systems of interacting bosons is developed in the effective action approach. The Legendre transform of the generating functional for Green's functions is used to define the effective action as a functional of both the particle density and the order parameter. Expanding the thermal effective action in powers of the Planck constant we obtain a systematic approximation scheme, which practically implements the Kohn-Sham idea: the problem of interacting bosons is reduced to a single-particle system in a fictitious external potential. The Kohn-Sham potential, the density and the order parameter have to be determined self-consistently in a given order approximation.

Rigorous density functional theory for inhomogeneous Bose-condensed fluids

Adam Griffin

The density functional theory originally developed by Hohenberg, Kohn, and Sham provides a rigorous conceptual framework for dealing with inhomogeneous interacting Fermi systems. We extend this approach to deal with inhomogeneous interacting Bose-condensed systems, limiting this presentation to setting up the formalism to deal with ground-state (T = 0) properties. The key new feature is that one must deal with energy functionals of both the local density n(r) and the local complex macroscopic wave function Φ(r) associated with the Bose broken-symmetry (the local condensate density is [Formula: see text]. Implementing the Kohn–Sham scheme, we reduce the problem to a gas of weakly interacting Bosons moving in self-consistent diagonal and off-diagonal one-body potentials. Our formalism should provide the basis for studies of the surface properties of liquid 4He as well as the properties of Bose-condensed atomic gases trapped in external potentials.

The density functional theory originally developed by Hohenberg, Kohn and Sham provides a rigorous conceptual framework for dealing with inhomogeneous interacting Fermi systems. We extend this approach to deal with inhomogeneous interacting Bose-condensed systems, limiting this presentation to setting up the formalism to deal with ground state (T = 0) properties. The key new feature is that one must deal with energy functionals of both the local density n(r) and the local complex macroscopic wavefunction Φ(r) associated with the Bose broken-symmetry (the local condensate density is nc(r) = |Φ(r) | 2).

Microscopic derivation of density functional theory for superfluid systems based on effective action formalism

Takeru Yokota, Haruki Kasuya, Kenichi Yoshida +1 more

Abstract A density-functional theory for superfluid systems is developed in the framework of the functional renormalization group based on the effective action formalism. We introduce the effective action for the particle-number and non-local pairing densities and demonstrate that the Hohenberg–Kohn theorem for superfluid systems is established in terms of the effective action. The flow equation for the effective action is then derived, where the flow parameter runs from $0$ to $1$, corresponding to the non-interacting and interacting systems. From the flow equation and the variational equation that the equilibrium density satisfies, we obtain the exact expression for the Kohn–Sham potential generalized to include the pairing potentials. The resultant Kohn–Sham potential has a nice feature in that it expresses the microscopic formulae of the external, Hartree, pairing and exchange–correlation terms separately. It is shown that our Kohn–Sham potential gives the ground-state energy of the Hartree–Fock–Bogoliubov theory by neglecting the correlations. An advantage of our exact formalism lies in the fact that it provides ways to improve the correlation part systematically.

Generalized Kohn-Sham Density-Functional Theory via Effective Action Formalism

Marat Valiev, Gayanath Fernando

We present a rigorous formulation of generalized Kohn-Sham density-functional theory. This provides a straightforward Kohn-Sham description of many-body systems based not only on particle-density but also on any other observable. We illustrate the formalism for the case of a particle-density based description of a nonrelativistic many-electron system. We obtain a simple diagrammatic expansion of the exchange-correlation functional in terms of Kohn-Sham single-particle orbitals and energies; develop systematic Kohn-Sham formulation for one-electron propagators and many-body excitation energies. This work is ideally suited for practical applications and provides a rigorous basis for a systematic development of the existing body of first-principles calculations in a controllable fashion.

A Rigorous Extension of the Kohn-Sham Equation for Strongly Correlated Electron Systems

Koichi Kusakabe

By introducing a set of auxiliary equations representing a many-body system, we have derived an extension of the Kohn-Sham scheme for the density functional theory. These equations consist of a Kohn-Sham-type equation determining single-particle orbitals and an eigen-value equation for an effective many-body problem. A variational method similar to the Kohn-Sham technique was utilized to derive effective interactions as well as effective potentials without artificial substitution of a Hubbard-type interaction and a mean-field correction in the energy functional. The second equation is described by an effective many-body Hamiltonian with both 2-body interactions and mean-field terms. Rigorous formulation of the extended Kohn-Sham equation is also given in accordance with the Hadjisavvas-Theophilou formulation. Our formulation can be interpreted as a way to define models of the strongly correlated electron systems, e.g. the Hubbard model

Density-Functional Theory for Strongly Interacting Electrons

Paola Gori‐Giorgi, Michael Seidl, Giovanni Vignale

We present an alternative to the Kohn-Sham formulation of density-functional theory for the ground-state properties of strongly interacting electronic systems. The idea is to start from the limit of zero kinetic energy and systematically expand the universal energy functional of the density in powers of a "coupling constant" that controls the magnitude of the kinetic energy. The problem of minimizing the energy is reduced to the solution of a strictly correlated electron problem in the presence of an effective potential, which in our theory plays the same role as the Kohn-Sham potential plays in the traditional formulation. We discuss several schemes for approximating the energy functional, and report preliminary results for low-density quantum dots.
