Abstract
Hierarchy configuration interaction (hCI) has recently been introduced as an alternative configuration interaction (CI) route combining excitation degree and seniority number and has been shown to efficiently recover both dynamic and static correlations for closed-shell molecular systems [ J. Phys. Chem. Lett. 2022, 13, 4342]. Here we generalize hCI for an arbitrary reference determinant, allowing calculations for radicals and excited states in a state-specific way. We gauge this route against excitation-based CI (eCI) and seniority-based CI (sCI) by evaluating how different ground-state properties of radicals converge to the full CI limit. We find that hCI outperforms or matches eCI, whereas sCI is far less accurate, in line with previous observations for closed-shell molecules. Employing second-order Epstein-Nesbet (EN2) perturbation theory as a correction significantly accelerates the convergence of hCI and eCI. We further explore various hCI and sCI models to calculate the excitation energies of closed- and open-shell systems. Our results underline that the choice of both the reference determinant and the set of orbitals drives the fine balance between correlation of ground and excited states. State-specific hCI2 and higher-order models perform similarly to their eCI counterparts, whereas lower orders of hCI deliver poor results unless supplemented by the EN2 correction, which substantially improves their accuracy. In turn, sCI1 produces decent excitation energies for radicals, encouraging the development of related seniority-based coupled-cluster methods.

Abstract
Accurate multireference electronic structure calculations are important for constructing potential energy surfaces. Still, even in the case of low-scaling methods, their routine use is limited by the steep growth of the computational and storage costs as the active space grows. This is primarily due to the occurrence of three- and higher-body density matrices or, equivalently, their cumulants. This work examines the effect of various cumulant truncation schemes on the accuracy of the driven similarity renormalization group second-order multireference perturbation theory. We test four different levels of three-body reduced density cumulant truncations that set different classes of cumulant elements to zero. Our test cases include the singlet-triplet gap of CH2, the potential energy curves of the XΣg+1 and AΣu+3 states of N2, and the singlet-triplet splittings of oligoacenes. Our results show that both relative and absolute errors introduced by these cumulant truncations can be as small as 0.5 kcal mol-1 or less. At the same time, the amount of memory required is reduced from O(NA6) to O(NA5), where NA is the number of active orbitals. No additional regularization is needed to prevent the intruder state problem in the cumulant-truncated second-order driven similarity renormalization group multireference perturbation theory methods.

Abstract
![]()
In
this article, we investigate the numerical and theoretical aspects
of the coupled-cluster method tailored by matrix-product states. We
investigate formal properties of the used method, such as energy size
consistency and the equivalence of linked and unlinked formulation.
The existing mathematical analysis is here elaborated in a quantum
chemical framework. In particular, we highlight the use of what we
have defined as a complete active space-external space gap describing
the basis splitting between the complete active space and the external
part generalizing the concept of a HOMO–LUMO gap. Furthermore,
the behavior of the energy error for an optimal basis splitting, i.e.,
an active space choice minimizing the density matrix renormalization
group-tailored coupled-cluster singles doubles error, is discussed.
We show numerical investigations on the robustness with respect to
the bond dimensions of the single orbital entropy and the mutual information,
which are quantities that are used to choose a complete active space.
Moreover, the dependence of the ground-state energy error on the complete
active space has been analyzed numerically in order to find an optimal
split between the complete active space and external space by minimizing
the density matrix renormalization group-tailored coupled-cluster
error.

Abstract
Approximate functionals used in practical density functional theory (DFT) deviate from the piecewise linear behavior of the exact functional for fractional charges. This deviation causes excess charge delocalization, which leads to incorrect densities, molecular properties, barrier heights, band gaps, and excitation energies. We present a simple delocalization function for characterizing this error and find it to be almost perfectly linear vs the fractional electron number for systems spanning in size from the H atom to the C12H14 polyene. This causes the delocalization energy error to be a quadratic polynomial in the fractional electron number, which permits us to assess the comparative performance of 47 popular and recent functionals through the curvature. The quadratic form further suggests that information about a single fractional charge is sufficient to eliminate the principal source of delocalization error. Generalizing traditional two-point information like ionization potentials or electron affinities to account for a third, fractional charge-based data point could therefore permit fitting/tuning of functionals with lower delocalization error.
