TI - Primer in Density Functional Theory / SN - 9783540030836 U1 - 530.15 PY - 2003/// CY - Berlin : PB - Springer, KW - Mathematical physics N1 - Includes Index N2 - Density functional theory (DFT) is by now a well-established method for tackling the quantum mechanics of many-body systems. Originally applied to compute properties of atoms and simple molecules, DFT has quickly become a work horse for more complex applications in the chemical and materials sciences. The present set of lectures, spanning the whole range from basic principles to relativistic and time-dependent extensions of the theory, is the ideal introduction for graduate students or non specialist researchers wishing to familiarize themselves with both the basic and most advanced techniques in this field.
