Efficient methods for computing exchange-correlation potentials for orbital-dependent functionals Viktor N. Staroverov Department of Chemistry, The University of Western Ontario, London, Ontario, Canada IWCSE 2013, Taiwan National University, Taipei, October 14 ‒ 17, 2013

2 Orbital-dependent functionals More flexible than LDA and GGAs (can satisfy more exact constraints) Needed for accurate description of molecular properties Kohn-Sham orbitals
3
Examples Exact exchange Hybrids (B3LYP, PBE0, etc.) Meta-GGAs (TPSS, M06, etc.) same expression as in the Hartree ‒ Fock theory 3
4
The challenge 4 Kohn ‒ Sham potentials corresponding to orbital- dependent functionals cannot be evaluated in closed form
5
Optimized effective potential (OEP) method 5 OEP = functional derivative of the functional
6
Computing the OEP Expand the Kohn ‒ Sham orbitals: Expand the OEP: orbital basis functions auxiliary basis functions 6
