A new scheme of density functional theory (DFT) for unconventional superconductivity is reviewed.To include the effect of charge fluctuations such as low-energy plasmons or excitons, we extendthe conventional formalism of superconducting DFT where the dynamical structure of the screened Coulomb interaction is neglected.We applied the present method to fcc Li under high pressure. We show that the agreement between thetheory and experiment is considerably improved. The present result indicates that plasmons cancooperate with phonons and enhance the pairing instability.

ABSTRACTWe have performed a detailed analysis of the magnetic (collinear and noncollinear) order and atomic and electron structures of UO2, PuO2 and UN on the basis of density functional theory with the Hubbard electron correlation correction (DFT+U). We have shown that the 3-k magnetic structure of UO2 is stabilized for the Hubbard parameter value of U=4.6 eV (while J=0.5 eV) when Dudarev’s formalism is used. UO2 keeps cubic shape in this structure. Two O atoms nearest to each U atom in direction of its magnetic moment move toward this U atom. Neither UN nor PuO2 shows the energetical preference for the rhombohedral distortion, in contrast to UO2, and, thus, no complex 3-k magnetic structure in these materials. Both materials have the AFM tetragonal <001> structure at reasonable choice of parameters U and J.
