Density-Functional Theory of Atoms and Molecules, Paperback / softback Book

Paperback / softback

Description

This book is a rigorous, unified account of the fundamental principles of the density-functional theory of the electronic structure of matter and its applications to atoms and molecules.

Containing a detailed discussion of the chemical potential and its derivatives, it provides an understanding of the concepts of electronegativity, hardness and softness, and chemical reactivity.

Both the Hohenberg-Kohn-Sham and the Levy-Lieb derivations of the basic theorems are presented, and extensive references to the literature are included.

Two introductory chapters and several appendices provide all the background material necessary beyond a knowledge of elementary quantum theory.

The book is intended for physicists, chemists, and advanced students in chemistry.
