The self consistent version of the density functional theory is presented, which allows to calculate the ground state and dynamic properties of finite multi-electron systems. An exact functional equation for the effective interaction, from which one can construct the action functional, density functional, the response functions, and excitation spectra of the considered systems, is outlined. In the context of the density functional theory we consider the single particle excitation spectra of electron systems and relate the single particle spectrum to the eigenvalues of the corresponding Kohn-Sham equations. We find that the single particle spectrum coincides neither with the eigenvalues of the Kohn-Sham equations nor with those of the Hartree-Fock equations.

In the eigen-functional theoretical framework, exact/accurate treatment of high-dimensional strongly correlated electron systems may be realized. The two key steps of this method are that under the path integral formulation we first change a D-dimensional quantum many-particle system into an (D+1)-dimensional (time-dependent) effective "single-particle" problem, then by solving the eigen-equation of the propagator operator of the particles, we can obtain the ground state energy functional and action, respectively. Under the eigen-functional theory, the problems of quantum many-particle systems end in to solve the equation of phase fields that are completely determined by the electron interaction. In practice this equation of the phase fields can be numerically solved for large lattice sites. After replacing the real time by the imaginary time, this method can also be applied for finite temperature cases.
