And if you run into problems already in describing the (non- equilibrium) initial state, you can't go on with TDDFT. Previous demonstrations required periodic v(t) or a small td t t perturbation (linear response), or later 0 (Laplace transformable switch-on v(t) This also is not potentials+initial ground-state). But there Runge-Gross described is no general proof of the Runge-Gross theorem. t t 0 [email protected] 28 TDDFT vs DFT Zoological Comparative Anatomy [email protected] 29 DFT vs TDDFT Hohenberg-Kohn: Runge-Gross: vr⇔ r vr ,t ⇔ r , t The Total Energy: The Action: t1 ∣ ∣ 〈∣H∣〉=E [] ∫ dt 〈t i∂t−H t t〉= A[] t0 are unique functionals of the density.
