Abstract
A new method for self-interaction correction in the density functional theo ry is given using an explicit energy functional of the density. The SI corr ection is locally carried out. The theory includes effects of strong correl ations in form of Hubbard-like terms which create atomic plateaus in the po tential. (C) 2001 Elsevier Science B.V. All rights reserved.
