So far, density functional theory has been lacking a deeper theoretical
basis of orbital polarization energies. A systematic derivation of orbital
polarization corrections from four-current density functional theory is
presented. Numerical results for orbital polarization energies of and
ions are given. The results compare nicely with frequently employed
empirical orbital polarization corrections.
