Tensor-structured algorithm for reduced-order scaling large-scale Kohn–Sham density functional theory calculations

Abstract We present a tensor-structured algorithm for efficient large-scale density functional theory (DFT) calculations by constructing a Tucker tensor basis that is adapted to the Kohn–Sham Hamiltonian and localized in real-space. The proposed approach uses an additive separable approximation to t...
