A generalized local approximation to the exchange potential

chem-ph 2009-10-28 v1 mtrl-th Chemical Physics

Abstract

A new method to obtain a local parameterization for the exchange term in the many--body electronic problem is presented. The approach amounts to the introduction of a coordinate dependent electron effective mass. Numerical results for metallic clusters in the jellium model are compared with other standard methods.
