Density functional, density matrix functional, and the virial theorem

On the basis of the virial theorem for finite motion of interacting electrons in a static external field, it is shown that ground-state energy is determined evidently by the one-particle density matrix. The exact expression for ground-state energy is found and can be applied to various problems, in particular, in studying the electronic structure of atoms, molecules, and other bound complexes.
