The present work is a review of two analytical properties of the exact exchange-correlation (xc) functional in density-functional theory. These properties are the asymptotic behavior of the xc energy density per particle and the asymptotic behavior of the Kohn-Sham potential, in finite many-electron systems. The derivation of the asymptotic forms for both quantities is reviewed, employing the concepts of the adiabatic connection and of the xc hole with relation to the first quantity and the electron exact factorization approach for the second one. Furthermore, it is shown that the correct asymptotic behavior of one of the aforementioned quantities does not guarantee a correct behavior of the other. In this process, a new quantity, the xc hole response function, is defined and its exact exchange part is analytically derived. The extent to which existing xc approximations satisfy the named exact properties is reviewed and the relationship between correct asymptotics and freedom from one-electron self-interaction in DFT is discussed. Finally, a strategy for development of advanced approximations for exchange and correlation with a correct asymptotic behavior is suggested.<br>

Systematic calculations of favored signature maximum-spin Imax and unfavored signature Imax - 1 terminating states for [Formula: see text] and [Formula: see text] configurations (n denotes number of valence particles) in A~44 mass region are presented. Following the result of Zduńczuk et al., Phys. Rev. C58 (2005) 024305 the calculations are performed using Skyrme energy density functional with empirical Landau parameters and slightly reduced spin-orbit strength. The aim is to identify and phenomenologically restore rotational symmetry broken by the Skyrme-Hartree-Fock solutions. In particular, it is shown that correlation energy due to symmetry restoration is absolutely crucial in order to reproduce energy splitting E(Imax) - E(Imax - 1) in [Formula: see text] configurations but is relatively less important for [Formula: see text] configurations.
