Ab initio construction of the energy density functional for electron systems with the functional-renormalization-group-aided density functional theory

We show an ab initio construction of the energy density functional (EDF) for electron systems using the functional renormalization group. The correlation energies of the homogeneous electron gas given in our framework reproduce the exact behavior at high density and agree with the Monte Carlo data i...
