We study the uniform electron gas with a gap model in the context of density functional theory. Based on this analysis, we construct two local gap models that realize generalized gradient approximation (GGA) correlation functionals…
We propose a generalized gradient approximation (GGA) for the angle- and system-averaged exchange-correlation hole of a many-electron system. This hole, which satisfies known exact constraints, recovers the PBEsol (Perdew-Burke-Ernzerhof…
Recently, Tao and Mo (TM) proposed an accurate all-purpose nonempirical meta-generalized gradient approximation (meta-GGA). The exchange part was derived from the density matrix approximation, while the correlation part is based on a…
The electron density, its gradient, and the Kohn-Sham orbital kinetic energy density are the local ingredients of a meta-generalized gradient approximation (meta-GGA). We construct a meta-GGA density functional for the exchange-correlation…
We test the Coulomb exchange and correlation energy density functionals of electron systems for atomic nuclei in the local density approximation (LDA) and the generalized gradient approximation (GGA). For the exchange Coulomb energies, it…
We extend the recently proposed thermally-assisted-occupation density functional theory (TAO-DFT) [J.-D. Chai, J. Chem. Phys. 136, 154104 (2012)] to generalized-gradient approximation (GGA) exchange-correlation density functionals. Relative…
A revised version of the semilocal exchange-correlation functional [Phys. Rev. Lett. 117, 073001 (2016)] (TM) is proposed by incorporating the modifications to its correlation content obtained from the full high-density second-order…
The Coulomb exchange and correlation energy density functionals for electron systems are applied to nuclear systems. It is found that the exchange functionals in the generalized gradient approximation provide agreements with the exact-Fock…
In a fixed-node diffusion Monte Carlo calculation of the total energy of jellium slabs, Acioli and Ceperley [Phys. Rev. B {\bf 54}, 17199 (1996)] reported jellium surface energies that at low electron densities were significantly higher…
Recently, Tao and Mo developed a new nonempirical semilocal exchange-correlation density functional. The exchange part of this functional is derived from a density matrix expansion corrected to reproduce the fourth-order gradient expansion…
In recent work, generalized gradient approximations (GGA's) have been constructed from the energy density of the Airy gas for exchange but not for correlation. We report the random phase approximation (RPA) conventional correlation energy…
Density Functional Theory relies on universal functionals characteristic of a given system. Those functionals in general are different for the electron gas and for jellium (electron gas with uniform background). However, jellium is…
We report the first three-dimensional wavevector analysis of the jellium exchange-correlation (xc) surface energy in the random-phase approximation (RPA). The RPA accurately describes long-range xc effects which are challenging for…
We present a study of the equilibrium properties of $sp$-bonded solids within the pseudopotential approach, employing recently proposed generalized gradient approximation (GGA) exchange correlation functionals. We analyze the effects of the…
Earlier tests show that the Tao-Perdew-Staroverov-Scuseria (TPSS) nonempirical meta-generalized gradient approximation (meta-GGA) for the exchange-correlation energy yields more accurate surface energies than the local spin density (LSD)…
Semilocal density functionals for the exchange-correlation energy are needed for large electronic systems. The Tao-Perdew-Staroverov-Scuseria (TPSS) meta-generalized gradient approximation (meta-GGA) is semilocal and usefully accurate, but…
We present a practical and accurate density functional for the exchange-correlation energy of electrons in two dimensions. The exchange part is based on a recent two-dimensional generalized-gradient approximation derived by considering the…
The known and usable truly nonlocal functionals for exchange-correlation energy of the inhomogeneous electron gas are the ADA (average density approximation) and the WDA (weighted density approximation). ADA, by design, yields the correct…
A systematic approach for the construction of a density functional for van der Waals interactions that also accounts for saturation effects is described, i.e. one that is applicable at short distances. A very efficient method to calculate…
The Tamm-Dancoff Approximation (TDA) offers a computationally efficient alternative to full linear-response Time-Dependent Density Functional Theory (TDDFT) for calculating electronic excited states, particularly in large molecular systems.…
