Machine learning the Hohenberg-Kohn map for molecular excited states

Density functional theory provides a formal map from the electron density to all observables of interest of a many-body system; however, maps for electronic excited states are unknown. Here, the authors demonstrate a data-driven machine learning approach for constructing multistate functionals.
