Kohn-Sham equations<br />

The main equations <strong>of</strong> DFT are the Kohn-Sham equations:<br />

[<br />

− 1 ]<br />

2 ∇2 + v ext (r) + v H (r) + v xc (r) ϕ i (r) = ɛ i ϕ i (r)<br />

where the <strong>exchange</strong>-<strong>correlation</strong> potential is defined as<br />

v xc (r) = δE xc<br />

δn(r)<br />

In any practical application <strong>of</strong> the theory, we have to use an<br />

approximation to E xc , or v xc (r).<br />
