Recent developments in the PySCF program package

Qiming Sun, Xing Zhang, Samragni Banerjee +46

PYSCF is a Python-based general-purpose electronic structure platform that both supports first-principles simulations of molecules and solids, as well as accelerates the developmen…

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…

Electronic landscape of the P-cluster of nitrogenase as revealed through many-electron quantum wavefunctions

Zhendong Li, Sheng Guo, Qiming Sun +1

The electronic structure of the nitrogenase metal cofactors is central to nitrogen fixation. However, the P-cluster and iron molybdenum cofactor, each containing eight irons, have…

An efficient stochastic algorithm for the perturbative density matrix renormalization group in large active spaces

Sheng Guo, Zhendong Li, Garnet Kin-Lic Chan

We present an efficient stochastic algorithm for the recently introduced perturbative density matrix renormalization group (p-DMRG) method for large active spaces. The stochastic i…

A Perturbative Density Matrix Renormalization Group Algorithm for Large Active Spaces

Sheng Guo, Zhendong Li, Garnet Kin-Lic Chan

We describe a low cost alternative to the standard variational DMRG (density matrix renormalization group) algorithm that is analogous to the combination of selected configuration…

Towards the solution of the many-electron problem in real materials: equation of state of the hydrogen chain with state-of-the-art many-body methods

Mario Motta, David M. Ceperley, Garnet Kin-Lic Chan +18

We present numerical results for the equation of state of an infinite chain of hydrogen atoms. A variety of modern many-body methods are employed, with exhaustive cross-checks and…

Time-dependent N-electron valence perturbation theory with matrix product state reference wavefunctions for large active spaces and basis sets: Applications to the chromium dimer and all-trans polyenes

Alexander Sokolov, Sheng Guo, Enrico Ronca +1

In earlier work [J. Chem. Phys. 144, 064102 (2016)], we introduced a time-dependent formulation of the second-order N-electron valence perturbation theory (t-NEVPT2) which (i) had…

Combining internally contracted states and matrix product states to perform multireference perturbation theory

Sandeep Sharma, Gerald Knizia, Sheng Guo +1

We present two efficient and intruder-free methods for treating dynamic correlation on top of general multi-configuration reference wave functions---including such as obtained by t…

N-electron valence state perturbation theory based on a density matrix renormalization group reference function, with applications to the chromium dimer and poly-p-phenylene vinylene oligomer

Sheng Guo, Mark A. Watson, Weifeng Hu +2

The strongly-contracted variant of second order N -electron valence state perturbation theory (NEVPT2) is an efficient perturbative method to treat dynamic correlation without the…
