Abstract
The use of truncated configuration interaction in real-time time-dependent simulations of electron dynamics provides a balance of computational cost and accuracy, while avoiding some of the failures associated with real-time time-dependent density functional theory. However, low-order truncated configuration interaction also has limitations, such as overestimation of polarizability in configuration interaction singles, even when perturbative doubles are included. Increasing the size of the determinant expansion may not be computationally feasible, and so, in this work, we investigate the use of nonorthogonality in the determinant expansion to establish the extent to which higher-order substitutions can be recovered, providing an improved description of electron dynamics. Model systems are investigated to quantify the extent to which different methods accurately reproduce the (hyper)polarizability, including the high-harmonic generation spectrum of H2, water, and butadiene.

Abstract
We introduce Sz spin-projection based on cluster mean-field theory and apply it to the ground state of strongly correlated spin systems. In cluster mean-fields, the ground state wavefunction is written as a factorized tensor product of optimized cluster states. In previous work, we have focused on unrestricted cluster mean-field, where each cluster is Sz symmetry adapted. We here remove this restriction by introducing a generalized cluster mean-field (GcMF) theory, where each cluster is allowed to access all Sz sectors, breaking Sz symmetry. In addition, a projection scheme is used to restore global Sz, which gives rise to the Sz spin-projected generalized cluster mean-field (SzGcMF). Both of these extensions contribute to accounting for inter-cluster correlations. We benchmark these methods on the 1D, quasi-2D, and 2D J1 - J2 and XXZ Heisenberg models. Our results indicate that the new methods (GcMF and SzGcMF) provide a qualitative and semi-quantitative description of the Heisenberg lattices in the regimes considered, suggesting them as useful references for further inter-cluster correlations, which are discussed in this work.

Abstract
The Ghent Quantum Chemistry Package (GQCP) is an open-source electronic structure software package that aims to provide an intuitive and expressive software framework for electronic structure software development. Its high-level interfaces (accessible through C++ and Python) have been specifically designed to correspond to theoretical concepts, while retaining access to lower-level intermediates and allowing structural run-time modifications of quantum chemical solvers. GQCP focuses on providing quantum chemical method developers with the computational "building blocks" that allow them to flexibly develop proof of principle implementations for new methods and applications up to the level of two-component spinor bases.

Abstract
Electron correlation effects play a key role in stabilizing two-electron atoms near the critical nuclear charge, representing the smallest charge required to bind two electrons. However, deciphering the importance of these effects relies on fully understanding the uncorrelated Hartree-Fock description. We investigate the properties of the ground state wave function in the small nuclear charge limit using various symmetry-restricted Hartree-Fock formalisms. We identify the nuclear charge where spin-symmetry breaking occurs to give an unrestricted wave function that predicts an inner and outer electron. We also identify closed-shell and unrestricted critical nuclear charges where the highest occupied orbital energy becomes zero and the electron density detaches from the nucleus. Finally, we identify the importance of fractional spin errors and static correlation for small nuclear charges.

Abstract
We present unrestricted and generalized Hartree-Fock solutions (UHF and GHF, respectively) for the single-band Hubbard model of an equilateral triangle. Spin-orbit coupling (SOC) is treated self-consistently, and HF stability and properties of different spin structures are studied in detail. The GHF solution switches from noncollinear to collinear when crossing a high-symmetry point in parameter space (spanned by the amplitudes of spin-conserving and spin-dependent hopping, i.e., kinetic energy and SOC, respectively). The collinear GHF solution represents a simple example to disprove the notion that a collinear vector spin density in a Slater determinant necessarily entails a defined spin projection. Spin Hamiltonian parameters for the anisotropic interaction between three spin-1/2 centers are extracted from HF energies and subsequently compared to exact results from effective Hamiltonian theory. This provides an unambiguous benchmark for interpreting broken-symmetry mean-field solutions in terms of spin configurations and puts this semiclassical approach (frequently applied in broken-symmetry density functional theory) on a firmer basis.
