Abstract

In these lectures on relativistic density functional theory I had the choice to provide a kind of survey, or to concentrate on a few specific aspects in greater detail. I chose the first option. In order to give you the opportunity to fill in the (often gory) details, I will distribute a list of references, augmented by suitable comments on the contents of the papers cited.
