Orbital Optimization in Selected Configuration Interaction Methods

Yuan Yao, C. J. Umrigar

We study several approaches to orbital optimization in selected configuration interaction plus perturbation theory (SCI+PT) methods, and test them on the ground and excited states…

Nonlocal pseudopotentials and time-step errors in diffusion Monte Carlo

Tyler A. Anderson, C. J. Umrigar

We present a version of the T-moves approach for treating nonlocal pseudopotentials in diffusion Monte Carlo which has much smaller time-step errors than the existing T-moves appro…

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…

Almost exact energies for the Gaussian-2 set with the semistochastic heat-bath configuration interaction method

Yuan Yao, Emmanuel Giner, Junhao Li +2

The recently developed semistochastic heat-bath configuration interaction (SHCI) method is a systematically improvable selected configuration interaction plus perturbation theory m…

Direct comparison of many-body methods for realistic electronic Hamiltonians

Kiel T. Williams, Yuan Yao, Jia Li +22

A large collaboration carefully benchmarks 20 first principles many-body electronic structure methods on a test set of 7 transition metal atoms, and their ions and monoxides. Good…
