We derive a simplified Bethe–Salpeter equation for calculating optical absorption based on the assumption of a local electron–hole interaction. The original four-point equation for the kernel is reduced to a two-point one. A connection to the exchange–correlation kernel in time-dependent density functional theory can be established. The resulting fxc is found to be -W/2 where W contains only the short-range (local) part of the Coulomb screened interaction. This simple approximation was successfully applied to optical absorption spectra of some excitonic crystals, reproducing not only the continuum excitons but also the bound ones.

Based on the Density Functional Theory (DFT) with noncollinear-magnetism formulations, we have calculated the magnetism of single 3d transition-metal atoms and the magnetic anisotropies of supported Ni chains on the Au(110)-(1 × 2) surface. Our results for single absorbed 3d transition-metal atoms show that the surface relaxations enhance the orbital moments of left-end elements (Ti, V) and quenches the orbital moments of right-end elements (Fe, Co, Ni) on the Au(110)-(1 × 2) surface. The magnetic anisotropies of Ni atomic chains on the surface are closely related to orbital quenching. The easy magnetized axes change from the direction parallel to the chains to the direction perpendicular to the Ni chains when they absorb on the surface.
