The accuracy of calculations of atomic Rydberg excitations cannot be judged by the usual measures, such as mean unsigned errors of many transitions. We show how to use quantum defect theory to (a) separate errors due to approximate…
The random-phase approximation to the ground state correlation energy (RPA) in combination with exact exchange (EX) has brought Kohn-Sham (KS) density functional theory one step closer towards a universal, "general purpose first principles…
In principle, the Luttinger-Ward Green's function formalism allows one to compute simultaneously the total energy and the quasiparticle band structure of a many-body electronic system from first principles. We present approximate and exact…
We present a method to approximate post-Hartree-Fock correlation energies by using approximate natural orbitals obtained by the random phase approximation (RPA). We demonstrate the method by applying it to the helium atom, the hydrogen and…
Many-body perturbation theory (MBPT) based on Green's functions and Feynman diagrams provides a fundamental theoretical framework for various \emph{ab initio} computational approaches in molecular and materials science, including the random…
Pair atomic density fitting (PADF) is a promising strategy to reduce the scaling with system size of quantum chemical methods for the calculation of the correlation energy like the direct random phase approximation (RPA) or second-order…
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…
We derive analytical expressions for chemical potentials within the random phase approximation (RPA), equivalently the $GW$ energy functional evaluated using non interacting Green's functions ($G_s$). The chemical potential is obtained…
We provide an integration of the universal, perturbative explicitly correlated [2]$_\text{R12}$-correction in the context of the Variational Quantum Eigensolver (VQE). This approach is able to increase the accuracy of the underlying…
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 use the random phase approximation (RPA) method with the singles correlation energy contributions to calculate lattice energies of ten molecular solids. While RPA gives too weak binding, underestimating the reference data by $13.7$\% on…
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…
The random phase approximation (RPA) builds in correlations left out by mean-field theory. In full 0-hbar-omega shell-model spaces we calculate the Hartree-Fock + RPA binding energy, and compare it to exact diagonalization. We find that in…
We formulate an adiabatic connection for the exchange-correlation energy in terms of pairing matrix fluctuation. This connection opens new channels for density functional approximations based on pairing interactions. Even the simplest…
Relativistic Continuum Random Phase Approximation (CRPA) is used to investigate collective excitation phenomena in several spherical nuclei along the periodic table. We start from relativistic mean field calculations based on a covariant…
The Random Phase Approximation (RPA) for total energies has previously been shown to provide a qualitatively correct description of static correlation in molecular systems, where density functional theory (DFT) with local functionals are…
Localized atomic orbitals are the preferred basis-set choice for large-scale explicit correlated calculations, and high-quality hierarchical correlation-consistent basis sets are a prerequisite for correlated methods to deliver numerically…
We propose a staggered mesh method for correlation energy calculations of periodic systems under the random phase approximation (RPA), which generalizes the recently developed staggered mesh method for periodic second order…
We present an embedding approach to treat local electron correlation effects in periodic environments. In a single, consistent framework, our plane-wave based scheme embeds a local high-level correlation calculation (here Coupled Cluster…
We numerically examine divergences of the total energy in metallic systems of approximate many-body theories using Hartree--Fock as a reference, including perturbative (M\oller-Plesset, MP), coupled cluster (CC) and configuration…
