Exact exchange-correlation potentials for calculating the fundamental gap with a fixed number of electrons

M. J. P. Hodgson, J. Wetherell, Emmanuel Fromager

Capturing the discontinuous shift by in the exact exchange-correlation (xc) potential is the standard proposal for calculating the fundamental gap, , from the Koh…

Insights into one-body density matrices using deep learning

Jack Wetherell, Andrea Costamagna, Matteo Gatti +1

The one-body reduced density matrix (1-RDM) of a many-body system at zero temperature gives direct access to many observables, such as the charge density, kinetic energy and occupa…

Accurate real-time evolution of electron densities and ground-state properties from generalized Kohn-Sham theory

M. J. P. Hodgson, J. Wetherell

The exact static and time-dependent Kohn-Sham (KS) exchange-correlation (xc) potential is extremely challenging to approximate as it is a local multiplicative potential that depend…

Advantageous nearsightedness of many-body perturbation theory contrasted with Kohn-Sham density functional theory

Jack Wetherell, Matthew Hodgson, Leopold Talirz +1

For properties of interacting electron systems, Kohn-Sham (KS) theory is often favored over many-body perturbation theory (MBPT) owing to its low computational cost. However, the e…

Accuracy of electron densities obtained via Koopmans-compliant hybrid functionals

A. R. Elmaslmane, Jack Wetherell, M. J. P. Hodgson +2

We evaluate the accuracy of electron densities and quasiparticle energy gaps given by hybrid functionals by directly comparing these to the exact quantities obtained from solving t…

self-screening error and its correction using a local density functional

Jack Wetherell, Matthew Hodgson, Rex Godby

The self-screening error in electronic structure theory is the part of the self-interaction error that would remain within the approximation if the exact dynamically screened…
