The density linear response function for an inhomogeneous system of electrons in equilibrium with an array of fixed ions is considered. Two routes to its evaluation for extreme conditions (e.g., warm dense matter) are considered. The first is from a recently developed short-time kinetic equation; the second is from time-dependent density functional theory. The result from the latter approach agrees with that from kinetic theory in the “adiabatic approximation,” providing support and contextual clarity for each. Both provide a connection to the phenomenological Kubo-Greenwood method for calculating transport properties.
