%\end{equation}
However, in addition of being unknown, the functional $\bE{}{\Bas}[\n{}{}]$ is obviously \textit{not} universal as it depends on $\Bas$.
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 (e-e) coalescence points.
As the e-e cusp originates from the divergence of the Coulomb operator at $r_{12} = 0$, a cuspless wave function could equivalently originate from a Hamiltonian with a non-divergent Coulomb interaction at $r_{12} = 0$.
Therefore, it feels natural to evaluate $\bE{}{\Bas}[\n{}{}]$ with short-range density functionals.
Contrary to conventional RS-DFT schemes which require a range-separated parameter $\rsmu{}{}$, we must know the value of $\rsmu{}{}$ at any point in space due to the spatial inhomogeneity of $\Bas$, hence defining a range-separated \textit{function} $\rsmu{}{}(\br{})$.
%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 choose a specific class of short-range density functionals, namely the short-range correlation functionals with multi-determinantal reference (ECMD) introduced by Toulouse \textit{et al.} \cite{TouGorSav-TCA-05} that we evaluate at $\n{\modX}{\Bas}$ alongside $\mu(\br{})$.% (see Sec.~\ref{sec:ecmd}) .
%Second, we define a real-space representation of the Coulomb operator projected in $\Bas$, which is then fitted with a long-range interaction thanks to a range-separation \textit{function} $\mu(\br{})$ defined in real space. %(see Sec.~\ref{sec:weff}).

%\label{sec:weff}
%=================================================================
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 (e-e) coalescence points.
As the e-e 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 Coulomb interaction.
Therefore, the impact of the incompleteness of $\Bas$ 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 operator $\W{\wf{}{\Bas}}{}(\bx{1},\bx{2})$ which i) is finite at the e-e 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.

\subsection{Effective Coulomb operator}
%=================================================================
%The present section briefly describes how to obtain an effective operator $\W{\wf{}{\Bas}}{}(\bx{1},\bx{2})$ which i) is finite at the e-e 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.
In order to compute the effective operator $\W{\wf{}{\Bas}}{}(\bx{1},\bx{2})$ defined such that
\begin{equation}
\label{eq:int_eq_wee}
\mel*{\wf{}{\Bas}}{\hWee{\Bas}}{\wf{}{\Bas}} = \iint \W{\wf{}{\Bas}}{}(\bx{1},\bx{2}) \n{\wf{}{\Bas}}{(2)}(\bx{1},\bx{2}) \dbx{1} \dbx{2},
\end{equation}
(where $\n{\wf{}{\Bas}}{(2)}(\bx{1},\bx{2})$ is the two-body density associated with $\wf{}{\Bas}$, $\bx{} = \qty(\br{},\sigma)$ collects space and spin variables, and $\int \dbx{} = \sum_{\sigma}\,\int_{\mathbb{R}^3} \dbr{}$), one must realise that
\begin{equation}
\mel*{\wf{}{\Bas}}{\hWee{}}{\wf{}{\Bas}} = \mel*{\wf{}{\Bas}}{\hWee{\Bas}}{\wf{}{\Bas}},
\end{equation}
which states that the expectation value of $\hWee{}$ over $\wf{}{\Bas}$ is equal to the expectation value of its projected version in $\Bas$
\begin{equation}
\label{eq:WeeB}
\hWee{\Bas} = \frac{1}{2} \sum_{ijkl \in \Bas} \vijkl \aic{k}\aic{l}\ai{j}\ai{i}
\end{equation}
over the same wave function $\wf{}{\Bas}$, where the indices run over all spinorbitals $\SO{i}{}$ in $\Bas$ and $\vijkl$ are the usual two-electron Coulomb integrals.
Because one can show (see Appendix A of Ref.~\onlinecite{GinPraFerAssSavTou-JCP-18}) that
\begin{subequations}
\begin{align}
\label{eq:expectweeb}
\mel*{\wf{}{\Bas}}{\hWee{\Bas}}{\wf{}{\Bas}} & = \frac{1}{2} \iint \f{\wf{}{\Bas}}{}(\bx{1},\bx{2}) \dbx{1} \dbx{2},
\\

\end{subequations}

\\
= \sum_{ijklmn \in \Bas} \SO{i}{1} \SO{j}{2} \vijkl \Gam{mn}{kl}[\wf{}{\Bas}] \SO{n}{2} \SO{m}{1},
\end{multline}
and $\Gam{mn}{pq}[\wf{}{\Bas}] = \mel*{\wf{}{\Bas}}{ \aic{p}\aic{q}\ai{n}\ai{m} }{\wf{}{\Bas}}$ is the two-body density tensor of $\wf{}{\Bas}$, it comes naturally that
\begin{equation}

\W{\wf{}{\Bas}}{}(\bx{1},\bx{2}) = \frac{\f{\wf{}{\Bas}}{}(\bx{1},\bx{2})}{\n{\wf{}{\Bas}}{(2)}(\bx{1},\bx{2})}.
\end{equation}
As already discussed in Ref.~\onlinecite{GinPraFerAssSavTou-JCP-18}, $\W{\wf{}{\Bas}}{}(\bx{1},\bx{2})$ is symmetric, \textit{a priori} non translational nor rotational invariant if $\Bas$ does not have such symmetries and is necessarily \textit{finite} at $r_{12} = 0$ for an incomplete basis set.
Also, as demonstrated in Appendix B of Ref.~\onlinecite{GinPraFerAssSavTou-JCP-18}, $\lim_{\Bas \to \infty}\W{\wf{}{\Bas}}{}(\bx{1},\bx{2}) = r_{12}^{-1}$.

\subsection{Range-separation function}
%=================================================================
To be able to approximate the complementary functional $\bE{}{\Bas}[\n{}{}]$ thanks to functionals developed in the field of RS-DFT, we fit the effective interaction with a long-range interaction having a range-separation parameter \textit{varying in space}.
More precisely, if we define the value of the interaction at coalescence as
\begin{equation}
\label{eq:def_wcoal}
\wbasiscoal{} = W_{\wf{}{\Bas}}(\bfr{},\bar{{\bf x}}_{}).
\end{equation}
where $(\bfr{},\bar{{\bf x}}_{})$ means a couple of anti-parallel spins at the same point in $\bfrb{}$,
we propose a fit for each point in $\rnum^3$ of $\wbasiscoal{ }$ with a long-range-like interaction:
\begin{equation}
\wbasiscoal{} = \w{}{\lr,\rsmu{\wf{}{\Bas}}{}}(\bfrb{},\bfrb{})
\end{equation}
where the long-range-like interaction is defined as
\begin{equation}
\w{}{\lr,\rsmu{}{}}(\br{1},\br{2}) = \frac{1}{2} \qty{ \frac{\erf[ \murr{1} \, r_{12}]}{r_{12}} + \frac{\erf[ \murr{2} r_{12}]}{ r_{12}} }.
\end{equation}
Equation \eqref{eq:def_wcoal} is equivalent to the following condition
\begin{equation}
\label{eq:mu_of_r}
\rsmu{\wf{}{\Bas}}{}(\br{}) = \W{\wf{}{\Bas}}{}(\br{})
\end{equation}
%As we defined an effective interaction for the valence electrons, we also introduce a valence range-separation parameter as
%\begin{equation}
% \label{eq:mu_of_r_val}
% \murpsival = \frac{\sqrt{\pi}}{2} \, \wbasiscoalval{} \, .
%\end{equation}
An important point to notice is that, in the limit of a complete basis set $\Bas$, as
\begin{equation}

\lim_{\Bas \rightarrow \infty}\wbasis = r_{12}^{-1} \quad \forall (\bx{1},\bx{2})
