Abstract:
Approximate natural orbitals are determined iteratively from CI expansions constructed using first-order perturbation theory in order to investigate the possibility of eliminating the complete transformation of MO integrals on each iteration. Results on LiH and H2O are compared with fully variationally determined NO's to assess questions of convergence.
