The discontinuous nature of the exchange-correlation functional -- critical for strongly correlated systems
Paula Mori-Sanchez, Aron J. Cohen, Weitao Yang
Standard approximations for the exchange-correlation functional have been found to give big errors for the linearity condition of fractional charges, leading to delocalization erro…

Fractional spins and static correlation error in density functional theory
Aron J. Cohen, Paula Mori-Sánchez, Weitao Yang
Electronic states with fractional spins arise in systems with large static correlation (strongly correlated systems). Such fractional-spin states are shown to be ensembles of degen…
