Progress in Fermi-Löwdin orbital self-interaction correction to DFT — •Torsten Hahn1, Sebastian Schwalbe1, Simon Liebing1, Mark Pederson2, and Jens Kortus11TU Freiberg, Institute for Theoretical Physics, Germany — 2Johns Hopkins University, Department of Chemistry, USA

The accuracy of density functional theory (DFT) calculations is limited by the so called self-interaction error [1]. The recently proposed Fermi-Löwdin orbital based method [2,3,4] for self-interaction correction (FLO-SIC) is a unitary invariant and size extensive approach to overcome this error. We present the current state of the method and discuss the performance of FLO-SIC DFT applied to atoms and molecules in combination with different exchange-correlation functionals. In addition, this method delivers a description of the chemical bonding as intuitive as Lewis theory that may bridge the gap between DFT and chemical intuition.
