A recent modification, r$^2$SCAN, of the SCAN (strongly constrained and appropriately normed) meta-GGA exchange-correlation functional mostly eliminates numerical instabilities and attendant integration grid sensitivities exhibited by SCAN.…
The SCAN meta-GGA exchange-correlation functional [Phys. Rev. Lett. 115, 036402 (2015)] is constructed as a chemical environment-determined interpolation between two separate energy densities: one describes single orbital electron densities…
The recently proposed rSCAN functional [J. Chem. Phys. 150, 161101 (2019)] is a regularized form of the SCAN functional [Phys. Rev. Lett. 115, 036402 (2015)] that improves SCAN's numerical performance at the expense of breaking constraints…
The strongly constrained and appropriately normed (SCAN) meta-generalized gradient approximation (meta-GGA) functional is a milestone achievement of electronic structure theory. Recently, a revised and restored form (r$^2$SCAN) has been…
A procedure for removing explicit orbital dependence from meta-generalized-gradient approximation (mGGA) exchange-correlation functionals by converting them into Laplacian-dependent functionals recently was developed by us and shown to be…
Recent investigations have found that the strongly constrained and appropriately normed (SCAN) meta-GGA exchange-correlation functional significantly over-magnetizes elemental Fe, Co, and Ni solids. For the paradigmatic case, bcc Fe, the…
Deorbitalization of a conventional meta-generalized-gradient exchange-correlation approximation replaces its dependence upon the Kohn-Sham kinetic energy density with a dependence on the density gradient and Laplacian. In principle, that…
The Strongly Constrained and Appropriately Normed (SCAN) functional is a non-empirical meta-generalized-gradient approximation (meta-GGA) functional that satisfies all the known constraints that a meta-GGA functional can, but it also…
Recent advancements in exchange-correlation functionals within density functional theory highlight the need for rigorous validation across diverse types of materials properties. In this study, we assess the performance of the newly…
We derive and motivate a Laplacian-level, orbital-free meta-generalized-gradient approximation (LL-MGGA) for the exchange-correlation energy, targeting accurate ground-state properties of $sp$ and $sd$ metallic condensed matter, in which…
We assess the accuracy and computational efficiency of the recently developed meta-generalized gradient approximation (metaGGA) functional, the restored regularized strongly constrained and appropriately normed (r$^2$SCAN), in transition…
The prominence of density functional theory (DFT) in the field of electronic structure computation stems from its ability to usefully balance accuracy and computational effort. At the base of this ability is a functional of the electron…
A systematic way of improving exchange-correlation energy functionals of density functional theory has been to make them satisfy more and more exact relations. Starting from the initial GGA functionals, this has culminated into the recently…
During the past decades, approximate Kohn-Sham density-functional theory schemes garnered many successes in computational chemistry and physics; yet the performance in the prediction of spin state energetics is often unsatisfactory. By…
Kohn-Sham density functional theory (DFT) is nowadays widely used for electronic structure theory simulations, and the accuracy and efficiency of DFT rely on approximations of the exchange-correlation functional. By inclusion of the kinetic…
The ground-state energy, electron density, and related properties of ordinary matter can be computed efficiently when the exchange-correlation energy as a functional of the density is approximated semilocally. We propose the first meta-GGA…
The strongly constrained and appropriately normed (SCAN) semilocal density functional [J. Sun, A. Ruzsinszky, J. P. Perdew \textit{Phys. Rev. Lett.} {\bf 115}, 036402 (2015)] obeys all 17 known exact constraints for…
The stability of the nonmodulated martensitic phase, the austenitic Fermi surface and the phonon dispersion relations for ferromagnetic Ni$_2$MnGa are studied using density functional theory. Exchange-correlation effects are considered with…
