Abstract
It is shown that the treatment of jellium within the two-particle picture, in which the states of an interacting many-electron system are expressed in terms of two-particle states, can be used to yield an exchange-correlation potential for two-state electronic strudture calculations in solids. This potential can be used in a generalization of the local-density approximation of density-functional theory to obtain the electronic structure of pair states. From these effective single particle states can be obtained in which the Coulomb interaction between electrons has been taken directly into account within a pair approximation.

Laplace’s theorem can be stated as follows: If any m rows of a determinant be selected and every possible minor of the mth order be formed from them, and if each be multiplied by its complimentary and the sign + or - be affixed to the product according as the sum of the numbers indicating the rows and columns from which the minor is formed be even or odd, the aggregate of the products thus obtained is equal to the original determinant.
