Recent Progress in Lattice Density Functional Theory
Recent developments in the density-functional theory of electron correlations in many-body lattice models are reviewed. The theoretical framework of lattice density-functional theory (LDFT) is briefly recalled, giving emphasis to its universality and to ...

“Ensemblization” of density functional theory
Density functional theory (DFT) has transformed our ability to investigate and understand electronic ground states. In its original formulation, however, DFT is not suited to addressing (e.g.) degenerate ground states, mixed states with different particle numbers, or excited states.

Multicomponent density functional theory with density fitting [PDF]
Multicomponent Density Functional Theory (MDFT) is a promising methodology to incorporate nuclear quantum effects, such as zero-point energy or tunneling, or to simulate other types of particles such as muons or positrons using particle densities as basic quantities.

The convexity condition of density-functional theory
It has long been postulated that within density-functional theory (DFT), the total energy of a finite electronic system is convex with respect to electron count so that 2Ev[N0] ≤ Ev[N0 − 1] + Ev[N0 + 1]. Using the infinite-separation-limit technique, this Communication proves the convexity condition for any formulation of DFT that is (1) exact for all ...

Protein pyrophosphorylation by inositol pyrophosphates — detection, function, and regulation
Protein pyrophosphorylation is an unusual signaling mechanism that was discovered two decades ago. It can be driven by inositol pyrophosphate messengers and influences various cellular processes. Herein, we summarize the research progress and challenges of this field, covering pathways found to be regulated by this posttranslational modification as ...

DFT and TDDFT study on spectra of B24N24 fullerene
The geometrical and electronic structure of B24N24 are optimized by using density functional theory (B3LYP) at the 6-31g(d) level. The results show that the geometrical structure symmetries of the optimized B24N24 clusters are S4, C2, S8, O. Based on the

We reconstituted Synechocystis glycogen synthesis in vitro from purified enzymes and showed that two GlgA isoenzymes produce glycogen with different architectures: GlgA1 yields denser, highly branched glycogen, whereas GlgA2 synthesizes longer, less‐branched chains.

Gut microbiome and aging—A dynamic interplay of microbes, metabolites, and the immune system
Age‐dependent shifts in microbial communities engender shifts in microbial metabolite profiles. These in turn drive shifts in barrier surface permeability of the gut and brain and induce immune activation. When paired with preexisting age‐related chronic inflammation this increases the risk of neuroinflammation and neurodegenerative diseases.

Molecular Density Functional Theory of Water [PDF]
Three dimensional implementations of liquid state theories offer an efficient alternative to computer simulations for the atomic-level description of aqueous solutions in complex environments. In this context, we present a (classical) molecular density functional theory (MDFT) of water that is derived from first principles and is based on two classical
