Proof that∂E∂ni=εin density-functional theory
Abstract
It is shown that the variation of the total energy, as constructed in density-functional theory, with respect to an orbital occupation is equal to the eigenvalue of that orbital, independent of the detailed form of the exchange-correlation functional. This leads to a rigorous connection between the ground-state energies of $N$- and ($N+1$)-particle systems, which is useful in the calculation of certain excitation energies.

About these checks
Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.
Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.
Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
