On the bottom-up construction of many-electron relativistic QED Hamiltonian

Wenjian Liu

It was shown more than a decade ago [J. Chem. Phys. 139, 014108 (2013)] that a many-electron relativistic quantum electrodynamics (QED) Hamiltonian for high-precision electronic st…

Perspective: "Relativity + Correlation + QED = Experiment''

Wenjian Liu

The ultimate goal of electronic structure calculations is to make the left and right hand sides of the titled ``equation'' as close as possible. This requires high-precision treatm…

iOI: an Iterative Orbital Interaction Approach for Solving the Self-Consistent Field Problem

Zikuan Wang, Wenjian Liu

An iterative orbital interaction (iOI) approach is proposed to solve, in a bottom-up fashion, the self-consistent field problem in quantum chemistry. While it belongs grossly to th…
