\begin{abstract} bla bla bla youpi tralala \end{abstract} \maketitle \section{Extensivity of the basis set correction} \subsection{General considerations} The following paragraph proposes a demonstration of the size consistency of the basis set correction in the limit of dissociated fragments. The present basis set correction being an integral in real space, \begin{equation} \label{eq:def_ecmdpbebasis} \begin{aligned} & \efuncdenpbe{\argebasis} = \\ & \int \text{d}\br{} \,\denr \ecmd(\argrebasis), \end{aligned} \end{equation} where all the quantities $\argrebasis$ are obtained from the same wave function $\Psi^{A+B}$. Such an integral can be rewritten as the sum of the contribution on $A$ and $B$ \begin{equation} \label{eq:def_ecmdpbebasis} \begin{aligned} & \efuncdenpbe{\argebasis} = \\ & \int_{ \br{} \in A} \text{d}\br{} \,\denr \ecmd(\argrebasis) \\ & + \int_{ \br{} \in B} \text{d}\br{} \,\denr \ecmd(\argrebasis), \end{aligned} \end{equation} Therefore, a sufficient condition to obtain size extensivity in the limit of dissociated fragments is that all arguments entering in the function $\ecmd(\argrebasis)$ are \textit{intensive}, which means that they \textit{locally} coincide in the system $A$ and in the sub system $A$ of the super system $A+B$. Regarding the density and its gradients, these are necessary intensive quantities. The remaining questions are therefore the local range-separation parameter $\murpsi$ and the on-top pair density. \subsection{Property of the on-top pair density} A crucial ingredient in the type of functionals used in the present paper together with the definition of the local-range separation parameter is the on-top pair density defined as \begin{equation} \ntwo_{\wf{}{}}(\br{}) = \sum_{pqrs} \SO{p}{} \SO{q}{} \Gam{pq}{rs} \SO{r}{} \SO{s}{}, \end{equation} with $\Gam{pq}{rs} = 2 \mel*{\wf{}{}}{ \aic{r_\downarrow}\aic{s_\uparrow}\ai{q_\uparrow}\ai{p_\downarrow}}{\wf{}{}}$. Assume now that the wave function $\wf{A+B}{}$ of the super system $A+B$ can be written as a product of two wave functions defined on two non-overlapping and non-interacting fragments $A$ and $B$ \begin{equation} \ket{\wf{A+B}{}} = \ket{\wf{A}{}} \times \ket{\wf{B}{}}. \end{equation} Labelling the orbitals of fragment $A$ as $p_A,q_A,r_A,s_A$ and of fragment $B$ as $p_B,q_B,r_B,s_B$ and assuming that they don't overlap, one can split the two-body density operator as \begin{equation} \begin{aligned} \hat{\Gamma}(\br{1},\br{2}) = \hat{\Gamma}_{AA}{}(\br{1},\br{2}) + \hat{\Gamma}_{BB}{}(\br{1},\br{2}) + \hat{\Gamma}_{AB}{}(\br{1},\br{2}) \end{aligned} \end{equation} with \begin{equation} \begin{aligned} \hat{\Gamma}_{AA}(\br{1},\br{2}) = \sum_{p_A,q_A,r_A,s_A}& \SO{r_A}{1} \SO{s_A}{2} \SO{p_A}{1} \SO{q_A}{2} \\ & \aic{r_{A,\downarrow}}\aic{s_{A,\uparrow}}\ai{q_{A,\uparrow}}\ai{p_{A,\downarrow}} , \end{aligned} \end{equation} (and equivalently for $B$), %\begin{equation} % \begin{aligned} % \hat{\Gamma}_{BB} = \sum_{p_B,q_B,r_B,s_B} \aic{r_{B,\downarrow}}\aic{s_{B,\uparrow}}\ai{q_{B,\uparrow}}\ai{p_{B,\downarrow}}, % \end{aligned} %\end{equation} and \begin{equation} \begin{aligned} \hat{\Gamma}_{AB} = \sum_{p_A,q_B,r_A,s_B} & \SO{r_A}{1} \SO{s_B}{2} \SO{p_A}{1} \SO{q_B}{2} \\ & \left( \aic{r_{A,\downarrow}}\ai{p_{A,\downarrow}} \aic{s_{B,\uparrow}}\ai{q_{B,\uparrow}} + \aic{s_{B,\uparrow}}\ai{q_{B,\uparrow}} \aic{r_{A,\downarrow}}\ai{p_{A,\downarrow}} \right) . \end{aligned} \end{equation} Therefore, one can express the two-body density as \begin{equation} \twodmrdiagpsitot = \twodmrdiagpsiaa + \twodmrdiagpsibb + \twodmrdiagpsiab \end{equation} where $\twodmrdiagpsiaa$ and $\twodmrdiagpsibb$ are the two-body densities of the isolated fragments \begin{equation} \begin{aligned} & \twodmrdiagpsiaa = \bra{\wf{A}{}} \hat{\Gamma}_{AA}(\br{1},\br{2}) \ket{\wf{A}{}} \end{aligned} \end{equation} (and equivalently for $B$), and $\twodmrdiagpsiab$ is simply the product of the one body densities of the sub systems \begin{equation} \begin{aligned} & \twodmrdiagpsiab = n_{A}(\br{1}) n_B(\br{2}) + n_{B}(\br{1}) n_A(\br{2}), \end{aligned} \end{equation} \begin{equation} \begin{aligned} & n_{A}(\br{}) = \sum_{p_A r_A} \SO{p_A}{} \bra{\wf{A}{}}\aic{s_{A,\uparrow}}\ai{q_{A,\uparrow}}\ket{\wf{A}{}} \SO{r_A}{} , \end{aligned} \end{equation} (and equivalently for $B$). As the densities of $A$ and $B$ are by definition non overlapping, one can express the on-top pair density as the sum of the on-top pair densities of the isolated systems \begin{equation} \begin{aligned} \ntwo_{\wf{A+B}{}}(\br{}) = \twodmrdiagpsiaad + \twodmrdiagpsibbd \end{aligned} \end{equation} As $\ntwo_{\wf{}{A/A}}(\br{}) = 0 \text{ if }\br{} \in B$ (and equivalently for $\ntwo_{\wf{}{B/B}}(\br{}) $ on $A$), one can conclude that provided that the wave function is multiplicative, the on-top pair density is a local intensive quantity. \subsection{Property of the local-range separation parameter} The local range separation parameter depends on the on-top pair density at a given point $\br{}$ and on the numerator \begin{equation} \label{eq:def_f} f_{\wf{A+B}{}}(\bfr{},\bfr{}) = \sum_{pqrstu\in \Bas} \SO{p}{ } \SO{q}{ } \V{pq}{rs} \Gam{rs}{tu} \SO{t}{ } \SO{u}{ }. \end{equation} As the summations run over all orbitals in the basis set $\Bas$, the quantity $f_{\wf{}{\Bas}}(\bfr{},\bfr{})$ is orbital invariant and therefore can be expressed in terms of localized orbitals. In the limit of dissociated fragments, the coulomb interaction is vanishing between $A$ and $B$ and therefore any two-electron integral involving orbitals on both the system $A$ and $B$ vanishes. Therefore, one can rewrite eq. \eqref{eq:def_f} as \begin{equation} \label{eq:def_fa+b} f_{\wf{A+B}{}}(\bfr{},\bfr{}) = f_{\wf{AA}{}}(\bfr{},\bfr{}) + f_{\wf{BB}{}}(\bfr{},\bfr{}), \end{equation} with \begin{equation} \begin{aligned} \label{eq:def_faa} & f_{\wf{AA}{}}(\bfr{},\bfr{}) = \\ & \sum_{p_A q_A r_A s_A t_A u_A} \SO{p_A }{ } \SO{q_A}{ } \V{p_A q_A}{r_A s_A} \Gam{r_A s_A}{t_A u_A} \SO{t_A}{ } \SO{u_A}{ }, \end{aligned} \end{equation} (and equivalently for $B$). %\begin{equation} % \begin{aligned} % \label{eq:def_faa} % & f_{\wf{BB}{}}(\bfr{},\bfr{}) = \\ &\sum_{p_B q_B r_B s_B t_B u_B} \SO{p_B }{ } \SO{q_B}{ } \V{p_B q_B}{r_B s_B} \Gam{r_B s_B}{t_B u_B} \SO{t_B}{ } \SO{u_B}{ }. % \end{aligned} %\end{equation} As a consequence, the local range-separation parameter in the super system $A+B$ \begin{equation} \label{eq:def_mur} \murpsi = \frac{\sqrt{\pi}}{2} \frac{f_{\wf{A+B}{}}(\bfr{},\bfr{})}{\ntwo_{\wf{A+B}{}}(\br{})} \end{equation} which, in the case of a multiplicative wave function is nothing but \begin{equation} \label{eq:def_mur} \murpsi = \murpsia + \murpsib. \end{equation} As $\murpsia = 0 \text{ if }\br{} \in B$ (and equivalently for $\murpsib $ on $B$), $\murpsi$ is an intensive quantity. The conclusion of this paragraph is that, provided that the wave function for the system $A+B$ is multiplicative in the limit of the dissociated fragments, all quantities used for the basis set correction are intensive and therefore the basis set correction is size consistent. \section{Computational considerations} \bibliography{../srDFT_SC} \end{document}
