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 />
