Similarity transformation-based Fock-space theories

Similarity Transformation-Based Fock Space Theories... [Pg.292]

Another category of approaches that avoids the symmetry breaking problem of the orbitals for the target state is based on using a related, well-behaved HF reference instead. Examples of such techniques include quasi-restricted Hartree-Fock coupled-cluster (QRHF CC) (11,19), symmetry adapted cluster configuration interaction (SAC-CI) (22,23), coupled-cluster linear response theory (CCLRT) (24-26) or equivalently equation-of-motion coupled-cluster (EOM-CC) (27-32), Fock space multi-reference coupled-cluster (FSMRCC) (33-37), and similarity transformed equation-of-motion coupled-cluster (STEOM-CC) (38-40). In the case of NO3 and N03, the restricted Hartree-Fock (RHF) orbitals of the closed-shell N03 anion system can be used as the reference. The anion orbitals are stable with respect to symmetry perturbations, and the system does not suffer from the artifactual symmetry breaking of the neutral and cation. [Pg.67]
