Author(s): Adam Clay, Kiril Datchev, Wenlan Miao, Adam Wasserman, Kimberly J. Daas, and Kieron Burke By applying a dimensionality and potential-dependent normalization instead of normalizing electron density to the number of electrons in DFT calculations yields better results than the same functional evaluated on the exact density.
