For each of the three proposals we compare its implementation only for the potential, only for the energy, i.e., a post-LDA evaluation of the SIC energy), to none of them, i.e., a standard LDA calculation) and to both. Each of the resulting 10 permutations of methodologies is applied to 420 Hubbard chains differing in size, particle number and interaction strength. A statistical analysis of the resulting data set reveals trends and permits to assess the performance of each methodology. Overall, but not in each individual case, a post-LDA application of Perdew-Zunger SIC emerges as the recommended methodology.7 pages, 3 figuresMaterials ScienceChemical Physicstext
