Abstract
In density-functional theory, the exchange-correlation functional can be exactly expressed by the adiabatic connection integral. It had been noticed that as , the term in the expansion of vanishes. We provide a simple derivation of this exact condition in this work. We propose a simple parametric form for the integrand, satisfying this condition, and show that it is highly accurate for weakly correlated two-electron systems.
