Fractional correction
=========================
The fractional correction method is applied when different atomic orbitals have a significant influence
in the composition of the band. To distribute half an electron, a threshold is chosen
in the composition of the band. To distribute half an electron, a threshold is chosen
:math:`\epsilon`, which represents the minimum value of :math:`a_{ij}` considered in the correction. Given these
values, half an electron will be divided among the atoms, proportionally to the coefficient :math:`a_{ij}`.

Is conduction band correction always necessary?
======================================================
In many cases, the correction in the valence band already returns satisfactory and close enough to the
experimental results, which rules out the need for an additional correction in the conduction band.

DFT -1/2 results
*********************

The results obtained by the application the method has the same precision [2]_ as the GW [9]_ algorithm considered
the state of the art for calculating the band-gap of semiconductors. In addition, the computational complexity of the method
is equivalent to calculating the Khon-Shan gap, which allows the technique to be applied to complex systems.
