Derivative Informed Learning of Exchange-Correlation Functionals

arXiv:2606. 04279v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: Machine-learned (ML) exchange-correlation (XC) functionals aim to replace human-designed density functional approximations by learning directly from reference data, but they still do not consistently outperform traditional $\mathcal{O}(N^4)$-scaling hybrid functionals.

A Fixed-Point Neural Operator for Size- and Functional-Transferable Hamiltonian Prediction

arXiv:2606. 14498v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: Predicting the Kohn-Sham Hamiltonian with machine learning can accelerate density functional theory while retaining access to molecular orbitals, energy levels, and electronic-structure observables that energy-only surrogates cannot resolve.

COF26: A new on-top functional for multiconfiguration pair-density functional theory

arXiv:2605. 06215v2 Announce Type: replace-cross Abstract: Multiconfiguration pair-density functional theory (MC-PDFT) provides an efficient and accurate framework for computing electronic energies in strongly correlated molecular systems, with the quality of the on-top functional being a key determinant of its predictive accuracy.
