Asymptotic expansion of two-electron integrals and its application to Coulomb and exchange lattice sums in metallic, semimetallic, and nonmetallic crystals

Exact exchange with range-separated algorithm for thermodynamic limit of periodic Hartree-Fock theory

The expensive cost of computing exact exchange in periodic systems limits the application range of density functional theory with hybrid functionals. To reduce the computational cost of exact change, we present a range-separated algorithm to compute electron repulsion integrals for Gaussian-type crystal basis. The algorithm splits the full-range Coulomb interactions into short-range and long-range parts, which are, respectively, computed in real and reciprocal space. This approach significantly reduces the overall computational cost, as integrals can be efficiently computed in both regions. The algorithm can efficiently handle large numbers of k points with limited central processing unit (CPU) and memory resources. As a demonstration, we performed an all-electron k-point Hartree-Fock calculation for LiH crystal with one million Gaussian basis functions, which was completed on a desktop computer in 1400 CPU hours.
