an approximation in density functional theory that treats the exchange-correlation energy at each point as that of a uniform electron gas of the same density.

In condensed matter physics, local density approximation refers to an approximation in density functional theory that treats the exchange-correlation energy at each point as that of a uniform electron gas of the same density. This meaning comes from Kohn (1965) in Physical Review.[1]
