Range-separated hybrid (RSH) functionals are a class of hybrid functionals that partition the Fock exchange into short-range and long-range components:

To address the divergence issue of the Coulomb potential at $q\to0$, two distinct RSH frameworks have been implemented:

  1. Conventional Spencer-Alavi truncated Coulomb potential

    • More efficient in initialization,
    • but suffers from divergence when computing long-range corrected hybrid functionals (e.g., LC-PBE).
  2. Massidda’s auxiliary-function-modified Ewald summation scheme

    • Resolves the limitations of the Spencer-Alavi truncation method.

This computational framework serves as the foundation for the upcoming implementation of GW and RT-TDDFT-EXX functionalities.
