The correct interpretation of magnetic properties in the weak-exchange regime has remained a challenging task for several decades. In this regime, the effective exchange interaction between local spins is quite weak, of the same order of…
Fractional-spin errors are inherent in all current approximate density functionals, including Hartree-Fock theory, and their origin has been related to strong static correlation effects. The conventional way to encode fractional-spin…

The hybrid form is a combination of the Rydberg potential and the London inverse-sixth-power energy. It is accurate at all relevant distance scales and simple enough for use in all-atom simulations of biomolecules. One may compute the…
