DESCRIPTION:
About the Author Jorge Kohanoff is Reader in Applied Mathematics and Theoretical Physics at Queen's University Belfast. He has contributed to computational methods and applications in electronic structure, statistical mechanics and Car-Parrinello molecular dynamics simulations.
Good book. But be careful of missing pages in the book! This is overall a great book, with clear and precise explanations of basic knowledge of DFT. But the second-handed book I got has pages 11-Good book. But be careful of missing pages in the book! Jeffrey Chen This is overall a great book, with clear and precise explanations of basic knowledge of DFT. But the second-handed book I got has pages 11-42 missing. I returned the item and bought from another shop and the item still has those pages missing. Something wrong with the binding process.. 2 missing. I returned the item and bought from another shop and the item still has those pages missing. Something wrong with the binding process.. Andrew Copple said Happy to have a complete book.. Thanks to the efforts of Dr. Kohanoff, I have finally (after a few years) received an unblemished copy of this textbook. I eagerly await the time to read this book, but for now, I know that my previous review of 1 star is unfair to the author, and what I've read so far, seems on par or better than other DFT/material science topic related books I've read. So I'm increasing this rating to Happy to have a complete book. Andrew Copple Thanks to the efforts of Dr. Kohanoff, I have finally (after a few years) received an unblemished copy of this textbook.

This 2006 graduate textbook describes the main theoretical approaches and computational techniques, from the simplest approximations to the most sophisticated methods. Electronic structure problems are studied in condensed matter physics and theoretical chemistry to provide important insights into the properties of matter. Adopting a unique and open approach, this textbook is aimed at graduate students in physics and chemistry, and is intended to improve communication between these communities. The basic approximations are thoroughly disc
