Relativistic Dirac-Coulomb-Breit Four-Component Multireference Perturbation Theory within the Small Tensor Product Distributed Active Space Framework

Rajat Majumder, Shiv Upadhyay, Ryan A. Beck +2

We present a four-component multireference second-order perturbation theory (4C-MRPT2) within the small tensor product distributed active space (STP-DAS) framework. The formulation…
