Studying excited-state-specific perturbation theory on the Thiel set

Rachel Clune, Jacqueline A. R. Shea, Tarini Hardikar +2

We explore the performance of a recently-introduced -scaling excited-state-specific second order perturbation theory (ESMP2) on the singlet excitations of the Thiel benchmarki…

An N-scaling excited-state-specific perturbation theory

Rachel Clune, Jacqueline A. R. Shea, Eric Neuscamman

We show that by working in a basis similar to that of the natural transition orbitals and using a modified zeroth order Hamiltonian, the cost of a recently-introduced perturbative…

A generalized variational principle with applications to excited state mean field theory

Jacqueline A. R. Shea, Elise Gwin, Eric Neuscamman

We present a generalization of the variational principle that is compatible with any Hamiltonian eigenstate that can be specified uniquely by a list of properties. This variational…

Tracking excited states in wave function optimization using density matrices and variational principles

Lan Nguyen Tran, Jacqueline A. R. Shea, Eric Neuscamman

We present a method for finding individual excited states' energy stationary points in complete active space self-consistent field theory that is compatible with standard optimizat…

A Mean Field Platform for Excited State Quantum Chemistry

Jacqueline A. R. Shea, Eric Neuscamman

We present a mean field theory for excited states that is broadly analogous to ground state Hartree-Fock theory. Like Hartree-Fock, our approach is deterministic, state-specific, a…

QMCPACK : An open source ab initio Quantum Monte Carlo package for the electronic structure of atoms, molecules, and solids

Jeongnim Kim, Andrew Baczewski, Todd D. Beaudet +45

QMCPACK is an open source quantum Monte Carlo package for ab-initio electronic structure calculations. It supports calculations of metallic and insulating solids, molecules, atoms,…

Size consistent excited states via algorithmic transformations between variational principles

Jacqueline A. R. Shea, Eric Neuscamman

We demonstrate that a broad class of excited state variational principles is not size consistent. In light of this difficulty, we develop and test an approach to excited state opti…
