China  \n(Dated: March 5, 2024)  \nDeveloping an accurate kinetic energy density functional (KEDF) remains a major hurdle in orbital-free density functional theory. We propose a machine learning based physical-constrained nonlocal (MPN) KEDF and implement it with the usage of the bulk-derived local pseudopotentialsand plane wave basis sets in the ABACUS package. The MPN KEDF is designed to satisfy three exact physical constraints: the scaling law of electron kinetic energy, the free electron gas limit, and the non-negativity of Pauli energy density. The MPN KEDF is systematically tested for simple metals, including Li, Mg, Al, and 59 alloys. We conclude that incorporating nonlocal information for designing new KEDFs and obeying exact physical constraints are essential to improve the accuracy, transferability, and stability of ML-based KEDF. These results shed new light on the construction of ML-based functionals.  \nPACS numbers: 71.15.Mb, 07.05.Mh, 71.20.Gj  \nI. INTRODUCTION  \nKohn-Sham density functional theory (KSDFT) is a widely-used ab initio method in materials science. [1, 2] However, its computational complexity of O(N3 ), where N is the number of atoms, poses significant challenges for large systems. Alternatively, orbital-free density functional theory (OFDFT) [3, 4] calculates the noninteracting electron kinetic energy Ts directly from the charge density instead of relying on the one-electron Kohn-Sham orbitals. As a result, OFDFT achieves amore affordable computational complexity of typically O (N lnN) or O(N) . [5–8] Given that Ts is comparable in magnitude to the total energy, the accuracy of OFDFT largely depends on the approximated form of the kinetic energy density functional (KEDF) . However, developing an accurate KEDF has been a major hurdle in the field of OFDFT for decades years.  \nOver the past few decades, continuous efforts have been devoted to developing analytical KEDFs. [4, 9] In general, KEDFs can be classified into two categories. The first category comprises local and semilocal components in KEDFs, where the kinetic energy density is a function of the charge density, the charge density gradient, the Laplacian of charge density, or even higher-order derivatives of the charge density. [10–15] The second category consists of nonlocal forms of KEDFs, where the kinetic energy density is a functional of charge density, such that the kinetic energy density at each point in real space depends on the nonlocal charge density. [16–20] Typically, semilocal KEDFs are more computationally efficient, while nonlocal ones offer a higher accuracy. However, since most of the existing nonlocal KEDFs are  \n∗ [mohanchen@pku.edu.cn](mohanchen@pku.edu.cn)  \nconstructed based on the Lindhard response function, which is accurate for nearly free electron gas, they are mainly adequate for simple metals. [16, 17] Some KEDFs were proposed to describe semiconductor systems, but they cannot work well for simple metals. [18–20] As a result, a KEDF that works for both simple metal and semiconductor systems is still lacking, and it is still unclear how to construct it systematically.  \nIn recent years, machine learning (ML) techniques have been involved in the developments of computational physics. [21] In particular, the remarkable fitting ability of ML models has been demonstrated in various applications, including the fitting of potential energy surfaces in molecular dynamics [22, 23], as well as fitting exchangecorrelation functionals [24–27] and Hamiltonian matrices [28] within the framework of density functional theory (DFT) .
