M. Lüders,M. Lüders,Miguel A. L. Marques,Miguel A. L. Marques,Nektarios N. Lathiotakis,Nektarios N. Lathiotakis,Andrea Floris,Andrea Floris,Gianni Profeta,Lars Fast,Alessandra Continenza,Sandro Massidda,E. K. U. Gross,E. K. U. Gross +13 more
TL;DR: In this paper, an approach to the description of superconductors in thermal equilibrium is developed within a formally exact density functional framework, formulated in terms of three "densities": the ordinary electron density, the superconducting order parameter, and the diagonal of the nuclear N-body density matrix.
Journal ArticleDOI
Ab initio theory of superconductivity. II. Application to elemental metals
Miguel A. L. Marques,Miguel A. L. Marques,M. Lüders,M. Lüders,Nektarios N. Lathiotakis,Nektarios N. Lathiotakis,Gianni Profeta,Andrea Floris,Andrea Floris,Lars Fast,Alessandra Continenza,E. K. U. Gross,E. K. U. Gross,Sandro Massidda +13 more
TL;DR: In this paper, the density functional theory for superconductors is applied to the calculation of superconducting properties of several elemental metals and the results for the transition temperature, for the gap at zero temperature, and for thermodynamic properties like the specific heat are obtained.
Journal ArticleDOI
Reduced density matrix functional for many-electron systems
TL;DR: In this paper, a reduced density matrix functional theory for the case of solids is presented and an exchange-correlation functional based on a fractional power of the density matrix is introduced.
Journal ArticleDOI
Superconductivity in lithium, potassium, and aluminum under extreme pressure: a first-principles study
Gianni Profeta,Cesare Franchini,Nektarios N. Lathiotakis,Andrea Floris,Andrea Floris,Antonio Sanna,Miguel A. L. Marques,M. Lüders,Sandro Massidda,E. K. U. Gross,Alessandra Continenza +10 more
TL;DR: The results show an unprecedented agreement with experiments, assess the predictive power of the method over a wide range of densities and electron-phonon couplings, and provide predictions for K, where no experiments exist so far.
Journal ArticleDOI

Andrea Floris,Andrea Floris,Gianni Profeta,Nektarios N. Lathiotakis,M. Lüders,Miguel A. L. Marques,Cesare Franchini,E. K. U. Gross,Alessandra Continenza,Sandro Massidda +9 more
TL;DR: In this paper, the role of gap anisotropy over the Fermi surface (multi-gap superconductivity) was investigated using density functional theory for superconductors.
