Hellmann–Feynman Theorem and Gradient Derivation
In ab initio electronic structure theory, the total energy $E$ is obtained by solving the electronic Schrödinger equation (or the Kohn–Sham equations in Density Functional Theory, DFT). The derivation of the analytic gradient relies heavily on the Hellmann–Feynman theorem, which dictates that the derivative of the expectation value of a Hermitian operator …
