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…
In wavefunction-based $\textit{ab-initio}$ quantum mechanical calculations, achieving absolute convergence with respect to the one-electron basis set is a long-standing challenge. In this work, using the random phase approximation (RPA)…
The ground state equilibrium properties of copper-gold alloys have been explored with the state of art random phase approximation (RPA). Our estimated lattice constants agree with the experiment within a mean absolute percentage error…
We present a comparative study of particle-hole and particle-particle channels of random-phase approximation (RPA) for molecular dissociations of different bonding types. We introduced a \textit{direct} particle-particle RPA scheme, in…
van der Waals interactions govern the physics of a plethora of molecular structures. It is well known that the leading term in the distance-based London expansion of the van der Waals energy for atomic and molecular dimers decays as…
We present an efficient implementation of the random phase approximation (RPA) for molecular systems within the domain-based local pair natural orbital (DLPNO) framework. With optimized parameters, DLPNO-RPA achieves approximately 99.9%…
The "ACFD-RPA" correlation energy functional has been widely applied to a variety of systems to successfully predict energy differences, and less successfully predict absolute correlation energies. Here we present a parameter-free…
We apply the analytically solvable model of two electrons in two orbitals to diradical molecules, characterized by two unpaired electrons. The effect of the doubly occupied and empty orbitals is taken into account by means of random phase…
A fast method is developed for calculating the Random-Phase-Approximation (RPA) correlation energy for density functional theory. The correlation energy is given by a trace over a projected RPA response matrix and the trace is taken by a…
We investigate basic hydrogen quantities like the molecular bond length, the molecular dissociation energy and the van-der-Waals interaction in idealized situations in an effort to discern a suitable exchange-correlation functional for the…
The random-phase approximation (RPA) as an approach for computing the electronic correlation energy is reviewed. After a brief account of its basic concept and historical development, the paper is devoted to the theoretical formulations of…
Using the adiabatic connection, we formulate the free energy in terms of the correlation function of a fictitious system, $h_{\lambda}({\bf r},{\bf r}')$, where $\lambda$ determines the interaction strength. To obtain $h_{\lambda}({\bf…
The random-phase approximation (RPA) formulated within the adiabatic connection fluctuation-dissipation framework is a powerful approach to compute the ground-state energies and properties of molecules and materials. Its overall…
With increasing inter-electronic distance, the screening of the electron-electron interaction by the presence of other electrons becomes the dominant source of electron correlation. This effect is described by the random phase approximation…
Liquid-liquid phase separation underlies phenomena ranging from protein condensate formation to the phase coexistence of synthetic polymers. Although the random phase approximation (RPA) is widely used to predict such phase behavior, its…
Developing theoretical understanding of complex reactions and processes at interfaces requires using methods that go beyond semilocal density functional theory to accurately describe the interactions between solvent, reactants and…
We present a real-space method for computing the random phase approximation (RPA) correlation energy within Kohn-Sham density functional theory, leveraging the low-rank nature of the frequency-dependent density response operator. In…
We present a new density-functional method of the self-consistent electronic-structure calculation which does not exploit any local density approximations (LDA). We use the exchange-correlation energy which consists of the exact exchange…
The matrix equations of the relativistic random-phase approximation (RRPA) are derived for an effective Lagrangian characterized by density-dependent meson-nucleon vertex functions. The explicit density dependence of the meson-nucleon…
We study the correlation energy associated with the pair fluctuations in BCS theory. We use a schematic two-level pairing model and discuss the behavior of the correlation energy across shell closures, including the even-odd differences. It…
