Accurate Density Functional for the Energy: Real-Space Cutoff of the Gradient Expansion for the Exchange Hole
Abstract
The density-gradient expansion of the fermion exchange hole is analyzed in real space. Unlike the local-density approximation, the second-order gradient-expansion approximation is found to violate two important properties of the exact hole: The exact hole is negative everywhere, and represents a deficit of one electron. Imposition of these exact constraints leads to an accurate new density functional for the exchange energy. Residual errors in the exchange energy for atoms are about 1% of this quantity. The new functional approximation may be generalized to include correlation.

About these checks
Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.
Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.
Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
