While highly successful, density functional theory is known to have limitations owing to its neglect of many-body electron-electron interactions. This neglect leads to errors in the single-particle energies, leading to underestimated band…
The random phase approximation (RPA) is exact for the exchange energy of a many-electron ground state, but RPA makes the correlation energy too negative by about 0.5 eV/electron. That large short-range error, which tends to cancel out of…

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…
