The random phase approximation (RPA) systematically overestimates the magnitude of the correlation energy and generally underestimates cohesive energies. This originates in part from the complete lack of exchange terms, which would…
Electron correlation in finite and extended systems is often described in an effective single-particle framework within the $GW$ approximation. Here, we use the statically screened second-order exchange contribution to the self-energy…
