<strong>Sternheimer</strong> <strong>equation</strong>: 2n+1 Theorem<br />

Solving n th -order perturbation theory gives 2n+1 derivative of total energy.<br />

n = 0: Hellman-Feyman Theorem. No wavefunction derivatives at all.<br />

n = 1: Linear variation of wavefunctions gives quadratic response.<br />

Quantum ESPRESSO and Octopus use <strong>equation</strong>s on previous slide.<br />

ABINIT formulation: find β by minimizing with respect to ψ (1) (variational).
