Exchange-correlation functionals via local interpolation along the adiabatic connection

The construction of density-functional approximations is explored by modeling the adiabatic connection locally, using energy densities defined in terms of the electrostatic potential of the exchange−correlation hole. These local models are more amenable to the construction of size-consistent approxi...
