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…

Classical computational simulation of the FeMo-cofactor model to chemical accuracy and its implications

Huanchen Zhai, Chenghan Li, Xing Zhang +3

We use classical computational methods to estimate the ground-state energy to chemical accuracy in a model of the FeMo-cofactor of nitrogenase which is widely studied as a target o…

Rapid initial state preparation for the quantum simulation of strongly correlated molecules

Dominic W. Berry, Yu Tong, Tanuj Khattar +8

Studies on quantum algorithms for ground state energy estimation often assume perfect ground state preparation; however, in reality the initial state will have imperfect overlap wi…

Block2: a comprehensive open source framework to develop and apply state-of-the-art DMRG algorithms in electronic structure and beyond

Huanchen Zhai, Henrik R. Larsson, Seunghoon Lee +10

Block2 is an open source framework to implement and perform density matrix renormalization group and matrix product state algorithms. Out-of-the-box it supports the eigenstate, tim…

An ab initio correction vector restricted active space approach to the L-edge XAS and 2p3d RIXS spectra of transition metal clusters

Seunghoon Lee, Huanchen Zhai, Garnet Kin-Lic Chan

We describe an ab initio approach to simulate L-edge X-ray absorption (XAS) and 2p3d resonant inelastic X-ray scattering (RIXS) spectroscopies. We model the strongly correlated ele…

Multireference protonation energetics of a dimeric model of nitrogenase iron-sulfur clusters

Huanchen Zhai, Seunghoon Lee, Zhi-Hao Cui +3

Characterizing the electronic structure of the iron--sulfur clusters in nitrogenase is necessary to understand their role in the nitrogen fixation process. One challenging task is…

Is there evidence for exponential quantum advantage in quantum chemistry?

Seunghoon Lee, Joonho Lee, Huanchen Zhai +15

The idea to use quantum mechanical devices to simulate other quantum systems is commonly ascribed to Feynman. Since the original suggestion, concrete proposals have appeared for si…

Externally corrected CCSD with renormalized perturbative triples (R-ecCCSD(T)) and density matrix renormalization group and selected configuration interaction external sources

Seunghoon Lee, Huanchen Zhai, Sandeep Sharma +2

We investigate the renormalized perturbative triples correction together with the externally corrected coupled-cluster singles and doubles (ecCCSD) method. We take the density matr…

The Ground State Electronic Energy of Benzene

Janus J. Eriksen, Tyler A. Anderson, J. Emiliano Deustua +21

We report on the findings of a blind challenge devoted to determining the frozen-core, full configuration interaction (FCI) ground state energy of the benzene molecule in a standar…
