The lack of nesting of Fermi-surface sheets in the Fe-based superconductor LiFeAs, with a Tc of 18 K, has led to questions as to whether the origin of superconductivity in this material might be different from other Fe-based superconductors. Here we present calculations of the superconducting gap and pairing in the random-phase approximation using Fermi surfaces derived from ARPES. The gaps obtained are qualitatively different from previous 2D theoretical works and in good agreement with ARPES on the main Fermi-surface pockets. We analyze the contributions to the pairing vertex thus obtained and show that the scattering processes between electron and hole pockets still dominate the pairing as in other Fe-based superconductors despite the lack of nesting, leading to gaps with anisotropic s± structure.
