Direct Determination of Optimal Real-Space Orbitals for Correlated Electronic Structure of Molecules

Direct Determination of Optimal Real-Space Orbitals for Correlated Electronic Structure of Molecules

We demonstrate how to determine numerically nearly exact orthonormal orbitals that are optimal for the evaluation of the energy of arbitrary (correlated) states of atoms and molecules by minimization of the energy Lagrangian. Orbitals are expressed in real space using a multiresolution spectral element basis that is refined adaptively to …
