The Python Simulations of Chemistry Framework: 10 years of an open-source quantum chemistry project

Qiming Sun, Matthew R Hermes, Xiaojie Wu +100

Over the past decade, the Python-based Simulations of Chemistry Framework (PySCF) has developed into a widely used open-source platform for electronic structure theory and quantum…

Fermionic tensor network contraction for arbitrary geometries

Yang Gao, Huanchen Zhai, Johnnie Gray +5

We describe our implementation of fermionic tensor network contraction on arbitrary lattices within both a globally ordered and locally ordered formalism. We provide a pedagogical…

A coupled cluster framework for electrons and phonons

Alec F. White, Yang Gao, Austin J. Minnich +1

We describe a coupled cluster framework for coupled systems of electrons and phonons. Neutral and charged excitations are accessed via the equation-of-motion version of the theory.…

Automatic transformation of irreducible representations for efficient contraction of tensors with cyclic group symmetry

Yang Gao, Phillip Helms, Garnet Kin-Lic Chan +1

Tensor contractions are ubiquitous in computational chemistry and physics, where tensors generally represent states or operators and contractions express the algebra of these quant…

Electronic structure of bulk manganese oxide and nickel oxide from coupled cluster theory

Yang Gao, Qiming Sun, Jason M. Yu +5

We describe the ground- and excited-state electronic structure of bulk MnO and NiO, two prototypical correlated electron materials, using coupled cluster theory with single and dou…
