Magnetic and electronic properties of NaTiSi$_2$O$_6$ in low temperature phase were studied in the framework of the LDA+U approximation. We stress that neglecting correlation effects in LSDA calculations one obtains not only several times smaller value of the band gap, but also fails to describe magnetic properties of NaTiSi$_2$O$_6$. Our …
