Clusters single reference many-body

Cluster expansion representation of a wave-function built from a single determinant reference function [1] has been eminently successful in treating electron correlation effects with high accuracy for closed shell atoms and molecules. The cluster expansion approach provides size-extensive energies and is thus the method of choice for large systems. The two principal modes of cluster expansion developments in Quantum Chemistry have been the use of single reference many-body perturbation theory (SR-MBPT) [2] and the non-perturbative single reference Coupled Cluster (SRCC) theory [3,4]. While the former is computationally economical for the first few orders of the perturbation expansion... [Pg.165]

Abstract The purpose of this paper is to introduce a second-order perturbation theory derived from the mathematical framework of the quasiparticle-based multi-reference coupled-cluster approach (Rolik and Kallay in J Chem Phys 141 134112, 2014). The quasiparticles are introduced via a unitary transformation which allows us to represent a complete active space reference function and other elements of an orthonormal multi-reference basis in a determinant-like form. The quasiparticle creation and annihilation operators satisfy the fermion anti-commutation relations. As the consequence of the many-particle nature of the applied unitary transformation these quasiparticles are also many-particle objects, and the Hamilton operator in the quasiparticle basis contains higher than two-body terms. The definition of the new theory strictly follows the form of the single-reference many-body perturbation theory and retains several of its beneficial properties like the extensivity. The efficient implementation of the method is briefly discussed, and test results are also presented. [Pg.242]

If we except the Density Functional Theory and Coupled Clusters treatments (see, for example, reference [1] and references therein), the Configuration Interaction (Cl) and the Many-Body-Perturbation-Theory (MBPT) [2] approaches are the most widely-used methods to deal with the correlation problem in computational chemistry. The MBPT approach based on an HF-SCF (Hartree-Fock Self-Consistent Field) single reference taking RHF (Restricted Hartree-Fock) [3] or UHF (Unrestricted Hartree-Fock ) orbitals [4-6] has been particularly developed, at various order of perturbation n, leading to the widespread MPw or UMPw treatments when a Moller-Plesset (MP) partition of the electronic Hamiltonian is considered [7]. The implementation of such methods in various codes and the large distribution of some of them as black boxes make the MPn theories a common way for the non-specialist to tentatively include, with more or less relevancy, correlation effects in the calculations. [Pg.39]

The second step of the calculation involves the treatment of dynamic correlation effects, which can be approached by many-body perturbation theory (62) or configuration interaction (63). Multireference coupled-cluster techniques have been developed (64—66) but they are computationally far more demanding and still not established as standard methods. At this point, we will only focus on configuration interaction approaches. What is done in these approaches is to regard the entire zeroth-order wavefunc-tion Tj) or its constituent parts double excitations relative to these reference functions. This produces a set of excited CSFs ( Q) that are used as expansion space for the configuration interaction (Cl) procedure. The resulting wavefunction may be written as... [Pg.317]

It is now well established by numerous and extensive applications that the single reference (SR) based many-body methods, viz. many-body perturbation theory (PT) [1], coupled cluster (CC) theory [2], coupled electron-pair approximations (CEPA) [3], etc. provide rather accurate descriptions of the energy in and around the equilibrium geometry of the closed-shell states. In particular, the single reference coupled cluster (SRCC)... [Pg.582]
