Comment on 'Energy partitioning schemes: a dilemma' [I. Mayer, Faraday Discuss., (2007) 135, 439]

arXiv:1104.3780

Abstract

A study of some decomposition schemes of the molecular energy into one- and two-center contributions published in the above mentioned journal highlights the importance of a 'dilemma' raised in such decompositions. Even more, it has been recently assigned a prominent role in the promotion energy mechanism. This critical comment clarifies the validity of such a 'dilemma'.
