By combining the Self-Interaction Correction (SIC) with pseudopotential perturbation theory, the role of self-interaction errors inherent to the Local Density Approximation (LDA) to Density Functional Theory is estimated in the…
Self-interaction (SI) error, which results when exchange-correlation contributions to the total energy are approximated, limits the reliability of many density functional approximations. The Perdew-Zunger SI correction (PZSIC), when applied…
The most widely-used density functionals for the exchange-correlation energy are inexact for one-electron systems. Their self-interaction errors can be severe in some applications. The problem is not only to correct the self-interaction…
A recently proposed local self-interaction correction (LSIC) method [Zope \textit{et al.} J. Chem. Phys., 2019,{\bf 151}, 214108] when applied to the simplest local density approximation provides significant improvement over standard…
Most widely used density functional approximations suffer from self-interaction (SI) error, which can be corrected using the Perdew-Zunger (PZ) self-interaction correction (SIC). We implement the recently proposed size-extensive formulation…
Within the framework of the local electron density functional theory, an ab-initio method is proposed that takes into account the self-interaction energy correction (SIC) for the crystal potential. The principle of dividing the unit cell…
Perdew-Zunger self-interaction correction (PZ-SIC) offers a route to remove self-interaction errors on an orbital-by-orbital basis. A recent formulation of PZ-SIC by Pederson, Ruzsinszky and Perdew proposes restricting the unitary…
We present a fully variational generalization of the pseudo self-interaction correction (VPSIC) approach previously presented in two implementations based on plane-waves and atomic orbital basis set, known as PSIC and ASIC, respectively.…
In approximate Kohn-Sham density-functional theory, self-interaction manifests itself as the dependence of the energy of an orbital on its fractional occupation. This unphysical behavior translates into qualitative and quantitative errors…
We examine the role of self-interaction errors (SIE) removal on the evaluation of magnetic exchange coupling constants. In particular we analyze the effect of scaling down the self-interaction-correction (SIC) for three {\em non-empirical}…
Incorporating self-interaction corrections (SIC) significantly improves chemical reaction barrier height predictions made using density functional theory methods. We present a detailed, orbital-by-orbital analysis of these corrections for…
We discuss an extension of time-dependent density-functional theory by a self-interaction correction (SIC). A strictly variational formulation is given taking care of the necessary constraints. A manageable and transparent propagation…
The Perdew-Zunger (PZ) method provides a way to remove the self-interaction (SI) error from density functional approximations on an orbital by orbital basis. The PZ method provides significant improvements for the properties such as barrier…
Self-interaction is a fundamental flaw of practical Kohn-Sham Density Functional Theory (KS DFT) approximations responsible for numerous qualitative and even catastrophic shortcomings. Whereas self-interaction is easy to characterize in…
We propose a simplification of the Optimized Effective Potential (OEP) applied to the Self Interaction Correction (SIC) scheme of Density Functional Theory (DFT). The new scheme fulfills several key formal properties and turns out to be…
Within the framework of linear-scaling Kohn-Sham density functional theory, a robust method for maintaining compact localized orbitals close to the ground state is coupled with nuclear dynamics. This allows to obviate the commonly employed…
Asymptotics-based configuration-interaction (CI) methods [G. Friesecke and B. D. Goddard, Multiscale Model. Simul. 7, 1876 (2009)] are a class of CI methods for atoms which reproduce, at fixed finite subspace dimension, the exact…
Self-consistent calculations using the Perdew-Zunger self-interaction correction (PZ-SIC) to local density and gradient dependent energy functionals are presented for the binding energy and equilibrium geometry of small molecules as well as…
Using the optimized effective potential method in conjunction with the semi-analytical approximation due to Krieger, Li and Iafrate, we have performed fully self-consistent exact exchange-only density-functional calculations for diatomic…
The use of the LCAO (Linear Combination of Atomic Orbitals) method for excited states involves products of orbitals that are known to be linearly dependent. We identify a basis in the space of orbital products that is local for orbitals of…
