SUMMARY:Density functional theory as a framework to develop new methods - 
 Professor Andreas Savin (Université Pierre et Marie Curie\, Paris VI)
DTSTART:20131009T131500Z
DTEND:20131009T141500Z
UID:TALK47744@talks.cam.ac.uk
CONTACT:Aron Cohen
DESCRIPTION:Density functionals are mostly seen as a valuable tool in elec
 tronic structure calculations. Hidden behind this success\, and also with 
 a promising potential\, are methods that can be developed starting with de
 nsity functional theory.\nThe structure of the talk is the following.\n# R
 ecalling the Hohenberg-Kohn theorem\, the Kohn-Sham model\, and the adiaba
 tic connection.\n#  Judging density functional approximations.\n# Generali
 zing the Kohn-Sham model: defining other model Hamiltonian.\n# Giving up d
 ensity functionals: the Overhauser model\, energy extrapolation.
