The localized Hartree-Fock potential has proven to be a computationally efficient alternative to the optimized effective potential, preserving the numerical accuracy of the latter and respecting the exact properties of being self-interaction free and having the correct $-1/r$ asymptotics. In this paper we extend the localized Hartree-Fock potential to fractional particle numbers and observe that it yields derivative discontinuities in the energy as required by the exact theory. The discontinuities are numerically close to those of the computationally more demanding Hartree-Fock method. Our potential enjoys a direct-energy property, whereby the energy of the system is given by the sum of the single-particle eigenvalues multiplied by the corresponding occupation numbers. The discontinuities $c_uparrow$ and $c_downarrow$ of the spin-components of the potential at integer particle numbers $N_uparrow$ and $N_downarrow$ satisfy the condition $c_uparrow N_uparrow+c_downarrow N_downarrow=0$. Thus, joining the family of effective potentials which support a derivative discontinuity, but being considerably easier to implement, the localized Hartree-Fock potential becomes a powerful tool in the broad area of applications in which the fundamental gap is an issue.
The Hartree-Fock problem provides the conceptual and mathematical underpinning of a large portion of quantum chemistry. As efforts in quantum technology aim to enhance computational chemistry algorithms, the fundamental Hartree-Fock problem is a natu
As the search continues for useful applications of noisy intermediate scale quantum devices, variational simulations of fermionic systems remain one of the most promising directions. Here, we perform a series of quantum simulations of chemistry the l
We present a multigrid scheme for the solution of finite-element Hartree-Fock equations for diatomic molecules. It is shown to be fast and accurate, the time effort depending linearly on the number of variables. Results are given for the molecules Li
The relation between the correlation energy and the entanglement is analytically constructed for the Moshinskys model of two coupled harmonic oscillators. It turns out that the two quantities are far to be proportional, even at very small couplings.
The fundamental gap is a central quantity in the electronic structure of matter. Unfortunately, the fundamental gap is not generally equal to the Kohn-Sham gap of density functional theory (DFT), even in principle. The two gaps differ precisely by th
