The functional $\bE{}{\Bas}[\n{}{}]$ is not universal as it depends on the basis set $\Bas$ used and a simple analytical form for such a functional is of course not known. However, in addition of being unknown, the functional $\bE{}{\Bas}[\n{}{}]$ is obviously \textit{not} universal as it depends on $\Bas$.
Following the work of Ref.~\onlinecite{GinPraFerAssSavTou-JCP-18}, we approximate $\bE{}{\Bas}[\n{}{}]$ in two steps which guarantee the correct behaviour in the limit of a complete basis set [see Eq.~\eqref{eq:limitfunc}]. Following Ref.~\onlinecite{GinPraFerAssSavTou-JCP-18}, we approximate $\bE{}{\Bas}[\n{}{}]$ following a two-step procedure which guarantees the correct behaviour in the limit $\Bas \to \infty$ [see Eq.~\eqref{eq:limitfunc}].
First, we define a real-space representation of the coulomb interaction projected in $\Bas$, which is then fitted with a long-range interaction thanks to a range-separation parameter $\mu(r)$ varying in space (see \ref{sec:weff}).

One of the consequences of the use of an incomplete basis-set $\Bas$ is that the wave function does not present a cusp near the electron coalescence point, which means that all derivatives of the wave function are continuous. As the exact electronic cusp originates from the divergence of the coulomb interaction at the electron coalescence point, a cusp-free wave function could also originate from an Hamiltonian with a non-divergent electron-electron interaction. Therefore, the impact of the incompleteness of a finite basis-set $\Bas$ can be thought as a cutting of the divergence of the coulomb interaction at the electron coalescence point. %=================================================================
One of the consequences of the incompleteness of $\Bas$ is that $\wf{}{\Bas}$ does not have a cusp (i.e. a discontinuous derivative) at the electron-electron coalescence points.
As the electron-electron cusp originates from the divergence of the Coulomb operator at $r_{12} = 0$, a cuspless wave function could also originate from a Hamiltonian with a non-divergent electron-electron interaction.
Therefore, the impact of the incompleteness of a finite basis set $\Bas$ can be viewed as a removal of the divergence of the coulomb interaction at $r_{12} = 0$.
The present paragraph briefly describes how to obtain an effective interaction $\wbasis$ which i) is finite at the electron-electron coalescence points as long as an incomplete basis set is used, and ii) tends to the genuine, unbounded $r_{12}^{-1}$ Coulomb operator in the limit of a complete basis set.
