Despite its widespread use, density functional theory (DFT) has several notable areas of failure; perhaps the most well-studied of these failures is self-interaction error (SIE). Density corrected DFT (DC-DFT) was proposed as a potential…

We recently introduced an efficient methodology to perform density-corrected Hartree-Fock density functional theory (DC(HF)-DFT) calculations and an extension to it we called "corrected" HF DFT (C(HF)-DFT). In this work, we take a further…

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…
