Fundamental approximations

•  Time independent Schrödinger equation

•  Born-Oppenheimer approximation

•  Relativistic effects are usually neglected

•  Neglect of higher order effects (e.g. spin-orbit interaction)

•  No excited states ⇒ Ground state (E0, Ψ0, ρ0)

Energy & Variational Principle

For any legal wavefunction (N-electron, antisymmetric, normalized) the energy is:

ΨΨ≡ΨΨ= ∫ ∗ HdHE ˆˆ r

⇒ the energy is a functional of Ψ: [ ]Ψ≡EE

Search all Ψ to minimize E ⇒ the ground state (E0, Ψ0)

The Hartree-Fock (HF) approximation - I

Given a complete orthonormal set of {ψi(x)} of one-electron spin-orbitals (x = r,α ; r,β), the exact ground state wavefunction can be expressed as a linear combination of all N-electron Slater determinants (antisymmetric) from {ψi(x)} :

In Hartree-Fock theory the real electron-electron interaction is replaced by an average interaction.

The HF wave function accounts for ≈99% of the total energy.

The ≈1% lost correlation energy is however crucial for: Bond energy Reaction intermediates Dispersive interactions

???

“Electrons moving through the density swerve to avoid one another, like shoppers in a mall” J.P. Perdew. Results of the swerving motion are: •  a reduction of the potential energy of mutual Coulomb repulsion (negative exchange-correlation energy) •  a small positive kinetic energy contribution to the correlation energy.

Beyond Hartree-Fock

Many methods/approximations applicable, e.g.: •  MBPT (Møller-Plesset): MP2, MP3, MP4 •  Configuration interaction (CI): CIS, CISD •  Coupled Cluster (CC): CCSD(T), CC2

•  GW •  QMC

To learn more on Post-HF methods ⇒ L. Maschio’s lecture (Thursday)

Generally expensive (N3 ⇒ N5, N6, N7) but systematically improvable Some of them are now available for periodic systems (e.g. CRYSCOR)

The Density Functional Theory (DFT) The electron density contains all the ingredients of a given physical system

Given an “external potential” Vext(r), the exact ground state energy E0 and the corresponding exact electron density ρ0(r) are obtained by minimizing the functional:

where

ρ(r)dr =N∫under the constraint:

E ρ(r)!" #$= F ρ(r)!" #$+ Vext (r)ρ(r)dr∫•  the system is uniquely described by Vext(r) •  F[ρ(r)]=T[ρ(r)]+Vee[ρ(r)] is the same for all systems (universal) •  F[ρ(r)] is NOT KNOWN …unfortunately

Hohenberg-Kohn (1964) established the basics of the Density Functional Theory (DFT):

The energy is a functional of ρ(r)

E ≡ E ρ(r)[ ]

MSSC2016 (Torino) 4-9/09/2016 B. Civalleri

DFT: the Kohn-Sham formalism Kohn and Sham (1965) proposed to write the density in terms of a set of orthonormal single-particle functions for non-interacting particles:

By resorting to a Slater determinant (antisymmetric) from {ψi(x)}, the ground state density ρ0(r) can be obtained by solving self-consistently a coupled set of one-electron pseudo-Schrödinger equations, the Kohn-Sham equations:

( ) ( )ˆKSi i ih ψ εψ=r r

No approximations

If we knew Exc[ρ(r)] we could solve for the exact ground state energy and density!

KS equations are similar to HF equations (non-local potential) Similar cost (N3) but including correlation energy

Exc[ρ(r)] is the exchange-correlation energy •  it contains the rest of the total energy: (i.e. Fermi, Coulomb and “kinetic” correlation, Self-Interaction (SIE))

•  it is usually splitted into two components: •  it is not known exactly → approximations (DFA)

Alphabeth Soup – Peter Elliott The quest of finding more accurate and reliable Exc[ρ(r)] functionals has originated a swarm of approximations:

•  Different ingredients •  Functional forms

•  Empirical (many fitted parameters) •  Non-empirical (many constraints)

HF and DFT: a few remarks

HF •  Catches an important part of physics (mean-field theory) •  Does not include correlation energy (Ec=E0-EHF) •  Self interaction free •  No dispersive interaction

DFT •  It is in principle exact •  In practice, it makes more or less justified approximations •  Results may be better than those obtained with HF •  Which Exc functional? (…must be validated -> benchmarks) •  Self interaction error (hybrid functionals) •  Problems with spin-polarized systems and strongly correlated systems •  No dispersive interaction (Double Hybrids or empirical and non-empirical corrections) (…wait until next lecture on Thursday…)
