摘要:

在整数粒子数下交换相关能(xc)的导数不连续性是密度泛函理论(DFT)的精确未知xc泛函的一个性质,而这在许多流行的局部和半局部近似中是不存在的。在格点DFT中,存在近似,其在半填充时表现出xc势的不连续性。然而,由于Kohn-Sham(KS)自洽循环的收敛问题,这些泛函的使用主要限于局部密度远离半填充的情况。本文提出了一种计算具有快速(或准不连续)密度依赖的局部xc势的格点KS哈密顿量的自洽解的数值方法。这个问题是制定在有限温度DFT的不连续性的xc潜力自然出现在零温度的限制。本文对由热力学Bethe近似解得到的有限温度下均匀一维哈伯德模型的xc势提出了一种简单的参数化方法。数值方案的可行性证明了应用到一个模型的费米子原子的谐波陷阱。相应的密度分布在低温下呈现整数占据的平台,其在较高温度下熔化。

英文摘要:

The derivative discontinuity of the exchange-correlation (xc) energy at integer particle number is a property of the exact, unknown xc functional of density functional theory (DFT) which is absent in many popular local and semilocal approximations. In lattice DFT, approximations exist which exhibit a discontinuity in the xc potential at half filling. However, due to convergence problems of the Kohn-Sham (KS) self-consistency cycle, the use of these functionals is mostly restricted to situations where the local density is away from half filling. Here a numerical scheme for the self-consistent solution of the lattice KS Hamiltonian with a local xc potential with rapid (or quasi-discontinuous) density dependence is suggested. The problem is formulated in terms of finite-temperature DFT where the discontinuity in the xc potential emerges naturally in the limit of zero temperature. A simple parametrization is suggested for the xc potential of the uniform 1D Hubbard model at finite temperature which is obtained from the solution of the thermodynamic Bethe ansatz. The feasibility of the numerical scheme is demonstrated by application to a model of fermionic atoms in a harmonic trap. The corresponding density profile exhibits a plateau of integer occupation at low temperatures which melts away for higher temperatures.
