Pierre Hohenberg is a physicist known for his contributions to the field of condensed matter physics, particularly in the areas of statistical mechanics and phase transitions. He is perhaps best known for the Hohenberg-Kohn theorems in density functional theory (DFT), which he developed along with Walter Kohn. These theorems form the theoretical foundation for much of modern computational materials science and quantum chemistry, enabling researchers to calculate the properties of many-body systems using electron density rather than wave functions.
