Part of the International Series of Monographs on Chemistry series
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.
