27. A linear effective potential does not imply a linear external potential. A quantum Monte Carlo calculation of the correlation energy density would have to start from the external potential.

42. We use a grid of 350 points nonuniformly distributed on the z axis. Our grid gives accurate RPA correlation energy densities for the region of interest s≥0.3. Calculations with 70 and 90 unoccupied orbitals and with 450 grid points give unchanged RPA correlation energy densities for s≥0.3. The biggest error of our numerical calculation is in the region s≤0.3, where the Thomas-Fermi approximation becomes accurate.

47. The numerical RPA conventional correlation energy density depends significantly on the slope value F when plotted against the standard reduced gradient for the correlation energy t= | n | / [4 (3/π) 1/6 n7/6]. Thus the Airy-gas correlation energy density is better described by sc of Eq. 20 or even by s of Eq. 11 (as proposed in AM05 GGA) than the standard reduced gradient for correlation t that was derived in the linear response of the uniform electron gas.
