✦ Synopsis


Recently, we used Helmholtz's theorem to construct an unambiguous exchange᎐correlation energy density for use in density functional theory. This energy density requires only knowledge of the density dependence of the exchange᎐correlation energy functional, E , for its calculation. We calculate this energy density for Hooke's XC Ž . atom in three different regimes: the high-density or weakly correlated limit; a moderate density, comparable to that of the He atom; and a low density, in which the system is strongly correlated. We compare the exact unambiguous energy density with approximate energy densities found from approximate energy functionals. The exchange᎐correlation energy can be deduced directly from the density in the highly correlated limit and a new formula for the high-density limit of the correlation energy is given.

## Application of the virial theorem to the interelectronic Coulomb repulsion shows that the virial of the exchange potential yields the exchange energy. However, the virial of the correlation potential does not yield the correlation energy. We have recently constructed a ''hypercorrelated'' potent

A simple model is studied for the atomic exchange energy density functional, which is based on the exponential decaying feature of the density and the Fermi᎐Amaldi model for exchange correlation.

Self-consistent field calculations are done using two-body density functionals for the correlation energy. The corresponding functional derivatives are obtained and used in pseudo-eigenvalue equations analogous to the Kohn᎐Sham ones. The examples studied include atomic systems from He to Ar. The val
