  The time-dependent superfluid local density approximation (TDSLDA) is an
extension of the Hohenberg-Kohn density functional theory (DFT) to
time-dependent phenomena in superfluid fermionic systems. Unlike linear
response theory, which is only valid for weak external fields, the (TDSLDA)
approach allows one to study non-linear excitations in fermionic superfluids,
including large amplitude collective modes, and the response to strong external
probes. Even in the case of weak external fields, the (TDSLDA) approach is
technically easier to implement. We will illustrate the implementation of the
(TDSLDA) for the unitary Fermi gas, where dimensional arguments and Galilean
invariance simplify the form of the functional, and ab initio input from (QMC)
simulations fix the coefficients to quite high precision.
