Why doubly excited determinants govern configuration interaction calculations of electron correlations

Carlos L. Benavides-Riveros, José M. Gracia-Bondía, Michael Springborg

Computational evidence shows that, when using natural orbitals to study (dynamical and non-dynamical) electron correlation, determinants with an odd number of excitations play a ne…

Quasipinning and selection rules for excitations in atoms and molecules

Carlos L. Benavides-Riveros, Michael Springborg

Postulated by Pauli to explain the electronic structure of atoms and molecules, the exclusion principle establishes an upper bound of 1 for the fermionic natural occupation numbers…

Quasi-pinning and entanglement in the lithium isoelectronic series

Carlos L. Benavides-Riveros, José M. Gracia-Bondía, Michael Springborg

The Pauli exclusion principle gives an upper bound of 1 on the natural occupation numbers. Recently there has been an intriguing amount of theoretical evidence that there is a plet…

How much can donor/acceptor-substitution change the responses of long push-pull systems to DC fields?

Michael Springborg, Bernard Kirtman

Mathematical arguments are presented that give a unique answer to the question in the title. Subsequently, the mathematical analysis is extended using results of detailed model cal…

Non-universality of commonly used correlation-energy density functionals

Jacob Katriel, Sudip Roy, Michael Springborg

The correlation energies of the helium isoelectronic sequence and of Hooke's atom isoelectronic sequence have been evaluated using an assortment of local, gradient and meta-gradien…
