Recent theory developments in ensemble density functional theory (EDFT) promise to bring decades of work for ground-states to the practical resolution of excited-state problem - provided newly-discovered "density-driven correlations" can be dealt with and adequate effective potentials can be found. This Letter introduces simple approximations to both the density-driven correlations and the potential; and shows that EDFT with the ωB97X density functional approximation outperforms ΔSCF DFT for singlet-triplet gaps in small atoms and molecules. It thus establishes EDFT as a vitally promising tool for low-cost but high-accuracy studies of excited states; and provides a clear route to practical EDFT implementation of arbitrary functional approximations. + +}, publisher={ChemRxiv}, author={Gould, Tim}, year={2020}, month={May} } + @article{Gould_2013, Author = {Gould, Tim and Dobson, John F.}, Date-Added = {2018-10-24 22:38:52 +0200}, diff --git a/Manuscript/FarDFT.tex b/Manuscript/FarDFT.tex index b4cdfb7..d60bbd7 100644 --- a/Manuscript/FarDFT.tex +++ b/Manuscript/FarDFT.tex @@ -390,6 +390,30 @@ We will also adopt the usual decomposition, and write down the weight-dependent where $\e{\ex}{\bw{}}(\n{}{})$ and $\e{\co}{\bw{}}(\n{}{})$ are the weight-dependent density-functional exchange and correlation energies per particle, respectively. +\manu{As shown in Sec.~\ref{subsubsec:weight-dep_corr_func}, the weight +dependence of the correlation energy can be extracted from a FUEG model.
