Exactness of Symmetry-Broken Self-Interaction Correction in the Strongly-Correlated or Classical Limit: Harmonium as a Demonstration
Cody Woods, Yunzhi Li, Wenqing Yao +2
Strong electron correlation is an important challenge to both wavefunction and density functional theory. It has been argued that the Perdew-Zunger 1981 self-interaction correction…

Artificial Symmetry Breaking by Self-Interaction Error
Lin Hou, Cody Woods, Yanyong Wang +7
Symmetry is a cornerstone of quantum mechanics and materials theory, underpinning the classification of electronic states and the emergence of complex phenomena such as magnetism a…
