When affordable (i.e., for relatively small molecules), time-independent state-averaged wave function methods \cite{Roos,Andersson_1990,Angeli_2001a,Angeli_2001b,Angeli_2002} can be employed to fix the various issues mentioned above.
The basic idea is to describe a finite ensemble of states (ground and excited) altogether, i.e., with the same set of orbitals.
Interestingly, a similar approach exists in DFT.
Ensemble DFT (eDFT) was proposed at the end of the 80's by Gross, Oliveira and Kohn (GOK), \cite{Gross_1988, Gross_1988a, Oliveira_1988} and is a generalization of Theophilou's variational principle for equi-ensembles. \cite{Theophilou_1979}

In eDFT, the (time-independent) xc functional depends explicitly on the weights assigned to the states that belong to the ensemble of interest.
This weight dependence of the xc functional plays a crucial role in the calculation of excitation energies.
It actually accounts for the infamous derivative discontinuity contribution to energy gaps. \cite{Levy_1995, Perdew_1983}

%\alert{Shall we further discuss the derivative discontinuity? Why is it important and where is it coming from?}
Despite its formal beauty and the fact that eDFT can in principle tackle near-degenerate situations and multiple excitations, it has not been given much attention until recently. \cite{Franck_2014,Borgoo_2015,Kazaryan_2008,Gould_2013,Gould_2014,Filatov_2015,Filatov_2015b,Filatov_2015c,Gould_2017,Deur_2017,Gould_2018,Gould_2019,Sagredo_2018,Ayers_2018,Deur_2018a,Deur_2018b,Kraisler_2013, Kraisler_2014,Alam_2016,Alam_2017,Nagy_1998,Nagy_2001,Nagy_2005,Pastorczak_2013,Pastorczak_2014,Pribram-Jones_2014,Yang_2013a,Yang_2014,Yang_2017,Senjean_2015,Senjean_2016,Senjean_2018,Smith_2016}
The main reason is simply the absence of density-functional approximations (DFAs) for ensembles in the literature.
Recent works on this topic are still fundamental and exploratory, as they rely either on simple (but nontrivial) models like the Hubbard dimer \cite{Carrascal_2015,Deur_2017,Deur_2018a,Deur_2018b,Senjean_2015,Senjean_2016,Senjean_2018,Sagredo_2018} or on atoms for which highly accurate or exact-exchange-only calculations have been performed. \cite{Yang_2014,Yang_2017}
In both cases, the key problem, namely the design of weight-dependent DFAs for ensembles (eDFAs), remains open.
A first step towards this goal is presented in this article with the ambition to turn, in the near future, eDFT into a practical computational method for modeling excited states in molecules and extended systems.

In the following, the present methodology is illustrated on \emph{strict} one-dimensional (1D), spin-polarized electronic systems. \cite{Loos_2012, Loos_2013a, Loos_2014a, Loos_2014b}
In other words, the Coulomb interaction used in this work describes particles which are \emph{strictly} restricted to move within a 1D sub-space of three-dimensional space.
Despite their simplicity, 1D models are scrutinized as paradigms for quasi-1D materials \cite{Schulz_1993, Fogler_2005a} such as carbon nanotubes \cite{Bockrath_1999, Ishii_2003, Deshpande_2008} or nanowires. \cite{Meyer_2009, Deshpande_2010}

The GOK ensemble energy~\cite{} is defined as follows:
The GOK ensemble energy~\cite{Gross_1988a,Oliveira_1988,Gross_1988b} is defined as follows:
\beq
E^{\bw}=\sum_{K\geq0}w_KE^{(K)},
\E{}{\bw}=\sum_{K \geq 0} \ew{K} \E{}{(K)},

The (positive) ensemble weights $w_K$ decrease with increasing index $K$. They are normalized, i.e.
where the $K$th energy level $\E{}{(K)}$ [$K=0$ refers to the ground state] is the eigenvalue of the electronic Hamiltonian $\hH = \hh + \hWee$, where

\hh = \sum_{i=1}^\nEl \qty[ -\frac{1}{2} \nabla_{\br{i}}^2 + \vne(\br{i}) ]

The (positive) ensemble weights $w_K$ decrease with increasing index $K$. They are normalized, i.e.,
\beq
\ew{0} = 1 - \sum_{K>0} \ew{K},
\eeq
so that only the weights $\bw \equiv \qty( \ew{1}, \ew{2}, \ldots, \ew{K}, \ldots )$ assigned to the excited states can vary independently.
For simplicity we will assume in the following that the energies are not degenerate. Note that the theory can be extended to multiplets simply by assigning the same ensemble weight to all degenerate states~\cite{}. In GOK-DFT, the ensemble energy is determined variationally as follows:
\beq\label{eq:var_ener_gokdft}
E^{{\bw}}=
\underset{\opGamma{{\bw}}}{\rm min}\left\{
{\rm
Tr}\left[\opGamma{{\bw}}\hat{h}\right]
+
{E}^{{\bw}}_{\rm
Hx}\left[n_{\opGamma{\bw}}\right]
+
{E}^{{\bw}}_{\rm
c}\left[n_{\opGamma{\bw}}\right]
\right\},
\E{}{\bw}
= \min_{\opGamma{{\bw}}}\qty{ \Tr[\opGamma{{\bw}}\hh]
+ \E{Hx}{\bw} \qty[\n{\opGamma{\bw}}{}]
+ \E{c}{\bw} \qty[\n{\opGamma{\bw}}{}]
},
\eeq
where ${\rm
Tr}$ denotes the trace and the trial ensemble density matrix operator reads
where $\Tr$ denotes the trace and the trial ensemble density matrix operator reads
\beq
\opGamma{{\bw}}=\sum_{K\geq 0}w_K\ket{\Phi^{(K)}}\bra{\Phi^{(K)}}.
\opGamma{\bw}=\sum_{K \geq 0} \ew{K} \dyad*{\Det{(K)}}.
\eeq
The determinants (or configuration state functions) $\Phi^{(K)}$ are all constructed from the same set of (ensemble Kohn--Sham) orbitals that is optimized variationally and the trial ensemble density is simply the weighted sum of the individual densities:
\beq\label{eq:KS_ens_density}
n_{\opGamma{\bw}}(\br)=\sum_{K\geq 0}w_Kn_{\Phi^{(K)}}(\br).
\n{\opGamma{\bw}}{}(\br{}) = \sum_{K\geq 0} \ew{K} \n{\Phi^{(K)}}{}(\br{}).
\eeq
As readily seen from Eq.~(\ref{eq:var_ener_gokdft}), both Hartree-exchange and
correlation energies are described with density functionals that are {\it weight-dependent}. We focus here on the (exact) Hx part which is defined as follows:

\beq
\sum_{K\geq 0}w_Kn_{\Phi^{(K)}[n]}(\br)=n(\br).
\sum_{K\geq 0} \ew{K} \n{\Det{(K)}[\n{}{}]}{}(\br{})=n(\br{}).
\eeq
The (approximate) description of the correlation part is discussed in Sec.~\ref{sec:eDFA}.\\
In practice, one is not much interested in ensemble energies but rather in excitation energies or individual energy levels (for geometry optimizations, for example). The latter can be extracted exactly as follows~\cite{}:
\beq\label{eq:indiv_ener_from_ens}
E^{(I)}&=&E^{{\bw}}+\sum_{K>0}\left(\delta_{IK}-w_K\right)\dfrac{\partial
E^{{\bw}}}{\partial w_K},
\E{}{(I)} = \E{}{\bw} + \sum_{K>0} \qty(\delta_{IK} - \ew{K} ) \pdv{\E{}{\bw}}{\ew{K}},

The construction of these two functionals is described below.
Note that, because we consider strict 1D systems, one cannot decompose further the Hartree-exchange contribution as each component diverges independently but their sum is finite. \cite{Astrakharchik_2011, Lee_2011a, Loos_2012, Loos_2013, Loos_2013a}
Most of the standard local and semi-local DFAs rely on the infinite uniform electron gas (UEG) model (also known as jellium). \cite{ParrBook, Loos_2016}
One major drawback of the jellium paradigm, when it comes to develop eDFAs, is that the ground and excited states cannot be easily identified like in a molecule. \cite{Gill_2012, Loos_2012, Loos_2014a, Loos_2014b, Agboola_2015, Loos_2017a}

Moreover, because the infinite UEG model is a metal, it is gapless, which means that both the fundamental and optical gaps are zero.
From this point of view, using finite UEGs \cite{Loos_2011b, Gill_2012} (which have, like an atom, discrete energy levels) to construct eDFAs can be seen as more relevant. \cite{Loos_2014a, Loos_2014b, Loos_2017a}
Here, we propose to construct a weight-dependent eDFA for the calculations of excited states in 1D systems.
As a finite uniform electron gas, we consider the ringium model in which electrons move on a perfect ring (i.e., a circle). \cite{Loos_2012, Loos_2013a, Loos_2014b}
The most appealing feature of ringium (regarding the development of functionals in the context of eDFT) is the fact that both ground- and excited-state densities are uniform.
As a result, the ensemble density will remain constant (and uniform) as the ensemble weights vary.
This is a necessary condition for being able to model derivative discontinuities.
The present weight-dependent eDFA is specifically designed for the calculation of excitation energies within eDFT.
As mentioned previously, we consider a three-state ensemble including the ground state ($I=0$), the first singly-excited state ($I=1$), and the first doubly-excited state ($I=2$) of the (spin-polarized) two-electron ringium system.
All these states have the same (uniform) density $\n{}{} = 2/(2\pi R)$ where $R$ is the radius of the ring where the electrons are confined.
We refer the interested reader to Refs.~\onlinecite{Loos_2012, Loos_2013a, Loos_2014b} for more details about this paradigm.
