Selection of terms for a CI wavefunction to preserve potential surface features

A cumulative selection procedure for choosing configuration functions for inclusion in CI calculations is described. The objective of the method is to obtain equal energy loss, relative to unselected calculations, for different states and different regions of the potential surface. Results obtained from calculations on the BH molecule indicate an overall advantage in comparison to the threshold selection procedure, particularly with regard to molecular geometry changes.     

Computed Potential Energy Surfaces and Minimum Energy Pathways for Chemical Reactions

Computed potential energy surfaces are often required for computation of such observables as rate constants as a function of temperature, product branching ratios, and other detailed properties. We have found that computation of the stationary points/reaction pathways using CASSCF/derivative methods, followed by use of the internally contracted CI method with the Dunning correlation consistent basis sets to obtain accurate energetics, gives useful results for a number of chemically important systems. Applications to complex reactions leading to NO_x and soot formation in hydrocarbon combustion are discussed.     

Analytic expression of the second derivatives of electronic energy for full configuration interaction wave functions

Summary A new analytic second derivative expression of the electronic energy is derived for full configuration interaction (CI) wave functions. This formula is shown to be free from the derivative terms of both CI and MO coefficients. The second-order relationships between CI and MO coefficients for full CI wave functions are also presented.     

Crystal,Molecular, and Electronic Structure of 1-Acetyl-indoline and Derivatives

The crystal and molecular structures of the following molecules have been determined: 1-acetyl-indoline, 1-acetyl-5-nitro-indoline, l-acetyl-5-nitro-7-bromo-indoline, 1-acetyl-5-bromo-7-nitroindoline, and l-acetyl-5-bromo-7-nitro-indol. Molecular orbital calculations are performed for these compounds and two related species.     

On the configuration interaction method for singlet states

The direct CI method, which avoids explicit calculation of the Hamiltonian matrix, is presented in a new form. The method is linked with Davidson's algorithm for iterative evaluation of the ground state eigenvector. The viability of the method is indicated by the test calculations on water which are described.     

Multireference perturbation CI I. Extrapolation procedures with CAS or selected zero-order spaces

We discuss the “three class” approximation to full multireference perturbation CI, which greatly reduces the computational effort by restricting the summation of diagrams to determinants belonging to a subspace of the zero-order space. In the framework of the CIPSI algorithm, we propose a new extrapolation procedure allowing recovery of the full “two class” results. The new procedure is applied to complete active spaces (CAS) and to individually selected zero-order spaces. Comparison with a full two class calculation on a CAS shows a reduction of computer time of one or two orders of magnitude in the tests presented here, with an accuracy in the order of 0.1 kcal/mol. Our procedure can thus compete with the CASPT2 algorithm, specifically conceived to deal with CAS. In the case of selected zero-order spaces, the speed-up is less dramatic but the method still retains its advantages. Received: 12 June 1997 / Accepted: 31 July 1997     

The convergence of the Rayleigh-Ritz Method in quantum chemistry

Two sufficient criteria for the convergence of the Rayleigh-Ritz Method (RRM) with respect to the eigenvalues (E-convergence) of non-relativistic electronic Hamiltonians of molecules are discussed and compared. Moreover, a necessary and sufficient criterion is given. By example (Sect. 9) it is shown that the L ²-completeness of the basis is not sufficient to guarantee E-convergence. The convergence of the wave functions in different norms (-convergence) is also investigated. In particular, sufficient conditions for the one-particle basis functions (orbitals) are given, such that a CI calculation in this basis is both E- and -convergent.     

GRECP/MRD‐CI calculations on the Hg atom and HgH molecule

Multireference single‐ and double‐excitation configuration interaction (MRD‐CI) calculations of transition energies for the Hg atom and spectroscopic constants for the HgH molecule are carried out with the generalized relativistic effective core potential (GRECP) method. A new selection criterium for the reference configurations is discussed. The calculated spectroscopic constants are compared with experimental data and results of calculations of other groups. Improvement of accuracy is mainly observed for bond lengths from the GRECP/MRD‐CI calculations (without applying the T = 0 correction) with respect to the results of other groups. Analysis of the quality of the approximations employed is carried out. © 2002 Wiley Periodicals, Inc. Int J Quantum Chem, 2002
