• Abstract: Density functional theory (DFT), one of the most widely utilized methods available to computational chemistry, fails to describe systems with statically correlated electrons. To address this shortcoming, in previous work we transformed DFT into a one-electron reduced density matrix theory (1-RDMFT) via the inclusion of a quadratic one-electron reduced density matrix (1-RDM) correction. Here, we combine our 1-RDMFT approach with different DFT functionals as well as Hartree-Fock to elucidate the method's dependence on the underlying functional selection. Furthermore, we generalize the information density matrix functional theory (iDMFT), recently developed as a correction to the Hartree-Fock method, by incorporating density functionals in place of the Hartree-Fock functional. We relate iDMFT mathematically to our approach and benchmark the two with a common set of functionals and systems.

• Enhancing Density Functional Theory for Static Correlation in Large Molecules [0.0]
  A critical challenge for density functional theory (DFT) in practice is its limited ability to treat static electron correlation. Recently, we combined one- and two-electron reduced density matrix theories with DFT to obtain a universal $O(N3)$ generalization of DFT for static correlation. We apply the resulting functional theory to linear hydrogen chains as well as the prediction of the singlet-triplet gap and equilibrium geometries of acenes.

• Relativistic reduced density matrix functional theory [0.0]
  We propose to consider reduced density matrix functional theory, where the key quantity is the first-order reduced density matrix (1-RDM) Within the np approximation the theory becomes similar to the nonrelativistic case, with as unknown only the functional that describes the electron-electron interactions in terms of the 1-RDM. This requires the construction of functional approximations, and we therefore also present the relativistic versions of some common RDMFT approximations.

  Density functional theory (DFT) fails to describe accurately the electronic structure of strongly correlated systems. We show that DFT can be transformed into a one-electron reduced-density-matrix (1-RDM) functional theory. Our approach yields substantial improvements over traditional DFT in the description of static correlation in chemical structures and processes.
