Another route to solve the Schr\"odinger equation is density-functional theory (DFT). \cite{Hohenberg_1964,Kohn_1999}
|

Present-day DFT calculations are almost exclusively done within the so-called Kohn-Sham (KS) formalism, \cite{Kohn_1965} which

transfers the complexity of the many-body problem to the exchange-correlation (xc) functional thanks to a judicious mapping between a non-interacting reference system and its interacting analog which both have exactly the same one-electron density.

KS-DFT \cite{Hohenberg_1964,Kohn_1965} is now the workhorse of electronic structure calculations for atoms, molecules and solids thanks to its very favorable accuracy/cost ratio. \cite{ParrBook}

As compared to WFT, DFT has the indisputable advantage of converging much faster with respect to the size of the basis set. \cite{FraMusLupTou-JCP-15,Loos_2019d,Giner_2020}

\manu{However, unlike WFT where many-body perturbation theory provides a precious tool to go toward the exact wave function, there is no systematic way to improve the approximated xc functionals toward the exact functional.}
|
||||
Therefore, one faces, in practice, the unsettling choice of the \emph{approximate} xc functional. \cite{Becke_2014}
|
||||
Moreover, because of the approximate nature of the xc functional, although the resolution of the KS equations is variational, the resulting KS energy does not have such property.
