Semilocal density-functional approximations (DFAs), including the state-of-the-art SCAN functional, are plagued by the self-interaction error (SIE). While this error is explicitly defined only for one-electron systems, it has inspired the…
Standard spin-density functionals for the exchange-correlation energy of a many-electron ground state make serious self-interaction errors which can be corrected by the Perdew-Zunger self-interaction correction (SIC). We propose a…
Recently proposed local self-interaction correction (LSIC) method [Zope, R. R. et al., J. Chem. Phys. 151, 214108 (2019)] is a one-electron self-interaction-correction (SIC) method that uses an iso-orbital indicator to apply the SIC at each…
We present a fully variational locally scaled self-interaction corrected (SIC) energy functional using complex optimal orbitals. This represents an important milestone for fully variational SIC energy functionals, which have been shown to…
We calculate the electronic structure of several atoms and small molecules by direct minimization of the Self-Interaction Corrected Local Density Approximation (SIC-LDA) functional. To do this we first derive an expression for the gradient…
The correction of the self-interaction error (SIE) that is inherent to all standard density functional theory (DFT) calculations is an object of increasing interest. In this article we apply the very recently developed Fermi-orbital based…
We propose a simplified version of self-interaction corrected local spin-density (SIC-LSD) approximation, based on multiple scattering theory, which implements self-interaction correction locally, within the KKR method. The multiple…
(Semi)-local density functional approximations (DFAs) suffer from self-interaction error (SIE). When the first ionization energy (IE) is computed as the negative of the highest-occupied orbital (HO) eigenvalue, DFAs notoriously…
The accurate prediction of electronic response properties of extended molecular systems has been a challenge for conventional, explicit density functionals. We demonstrate that a self-interaction correction implemented rigorously within…
Semi-local density functionals for the exchange-correlation energy of a many-electron system cannot be exact for all one-electron densities. In 1981, Perdew and Zunger (PZ) subtracted the fully-nonlocal self-interaction error…
A recent modification of the Perdew-Zunger self-interaction-correction (SIC) to the density-functional formalism (Pederson, Ruzsinszky, Perdew) has provided a framework for explicitly restoring unitary invariance to the expression for the…
Density functional theory calculations of electronic transport based on local exchange and correlation functionals contain self-interaction errors. These originate from the interaction of an electron with the potential generated by itself…
Semi-local approximations to the density functional for the exchange-correlation energy of a many-electron system necessarily fail for lobed one-electron densities, including not only the familiar stretched densities but also the less…
The Perdew-Zunger self-interaction correction(PZ-SIC) improves the performance of density functional approximations(DFAs) for the properties that involve significant self-interaction error(SIE), as in stretched bond situations, but…
A systematic comparison of three approximate self-interaction corrections (SICs), Perdew-Zunger SIC, Lundin-Eriksson SIC and extended Fermi-Amaldi SIC, is performed for a model Hamiltonian whose exact many-body solution and exact…
We investigate from a practitioner's point of view the computation of the ionization potential (IP) within density functional theory (DFT). DFT with (semi-)local energy-density functionals is plagued by a self-interaction error which…
We extend some of the well established self-interaction correction (SIC) schemes of density-functional theory to the case of systems with noncollinear magnetism. Our proposed SIC schemes are tested on a set of molecules and metallic…
It is demonstrated that the commonly applied self interaction correction (SIC) used in density functional theory does not remove all self interaction. We present as an alternative a novel method which, by construction, is totally free from…
Local-spin-density functional calculations may be affected by severe errors when applied to the study of magnetic and strongly-correlated materials. Some of these faults can be traced back to the presence of the spurious self-interaction in…
Density functional theory (DFT) and beyond-DFT methods are often used in combination with photoelectron spectroscopy to obtain physical insights into the electronic structure of molecules and solids. The Kohn-Sham eigenvalues are not…
