Chapter New Insights and Horizons from the Linear Response Function in Conceptual DFT

An overview is given of our recent work on the linear response function (LRF) χrr' and its congener, the softness kernel srr', the second functional derivatives of the energy E and the grand potential Ω with respect to the external potential at constant N and μ, respectively. In a first se...
