  3. Fukui function - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Fukui_function

    The Fukui function is named after Kenichi Fukui, who investigated the frontier orbitals described by the function, specifically the HOMO and LUMO. [3] Fukui functions are related in part to the frontier molecular orbital theory (also known as the Fukui theory of reactivity and selection, also developed by Kenichi Fukui) which discusses how nucleophiles attack the HOMO while at the same time ...

    Yang's main contributions to theoretical chemistry range from fundamental theory to applications of density functional theory. He (with Parr) developed the concepts of the Fukui function, [1] hardness, and softness [2] in density functional theory. He also justified the theoretical ground of potential functional (as in Optimized-Effective ...

    This response function is important as the reaction of two components A and B involving a transfer of electrons will depend on the responsiveness of the electron density to electron donation or acceptance, i.e. the derivative of the Fukui function () = (). In fact, from a simplistic viewpoint, the dual descriptor function gives a readout on the ...
