We report a universal density-based basis-set incompleteness correction that can be applied to any wave function method. The present correction, which appropriately vanishes in the complete basis set (CBS) limit, relies on short-range…

We extend to strongly correlated molecular systems the recently introduced basis-set incompleteness correction based on density-functional theory (DFT) [E. Giner et al., J. Chem. Phys. 149, 194301 (2018)]. This basis-set correction relies…

We argue that any general mathematical measure of density error, no matter how reasonable, is too arbitrary to be of universal use. However the energy functional itself provides a universal relevant measure of density errors. For the…
