We study the decomposition of the Coulomb integrals of periodic systems into a tensor contraction of six matrices of which only two are distinct. We find that the Coulomb integrals can be well approximated in this form already with small matrices compared to the number of real space grid points. The cost of computing the matrices scales as O(N^4) using a regularized form of the alternating least squares algorithm. The studied factorization of the Coulomb integrals can be exploited to reduce the scaling of the computational cost of expensive tensor contractions appearing in the amplitude equations of coupled cluster methods with respect to system size. We apply the developed methodologies to calculate the adsorption energy of a single water molecule on a hexagonal boron nitride monolayer in a plane wave basis set and periodic boundary conditions.

We present ab initio absorption spectra of six three-dimensional semiconductors and insulators calculated using Gaussian-based periodic equation-of-motion coupled-cluster theory with single and double excitations (EOM-CCSD). The spectra are calculate d efficiently by solving a system of linear equations at each frequency, giving access to an energy range of tens of eV without explicit enumeration of excited states. We assess the impact of Brillouin zone sampling, for which it is hard to achieve convergence due to the cost of EOM-CCSD. Although our most converged spectra exhibit lineshapes that are in good agreement with experiment, they are uniformly shifted to higher energies by about 1 eV. We tentatively attribute this discrepancy to a combination of vibrational effects and the remaining electron correlation, i.e., triple excitations and above.
We discuss the analytic and diagrammatic structure of ionization potential (IP) and electron affinity (EA) equation-of-motion coupled-cluster (EOM-CC) theory, in order to put it on equal footing with the prevalent $GW$ approximation. The comparison i s most straightforward for the time-ordered one-particle Greens function, and we show that the Greens function calculated by EOM-CC with single and double excitations (EOM-CCSD) includes fewer ring diagrams at higher order than does the $GW$ approximation, due to the formers unbalanced treatment of time-ordering. However, the EOM-CCSD Greens function contains a large number of vertex corrections, including ladder diagrams, mixed ring-ladder diagrams, and exchange diagrams. By including triple excitations, the EOM-CCSDT Greens function includes all diagrams contained in the $GW$ approximation, along with many high-order vertex corrections. In the same language, we discuss a number of common approximations to the EOM-CCSD equations, many of which can be classified as elimination of diagrams. Finally, we present numerical results by calculating the principal charged excitations energies of the molecules contained in the so-called $GW$100 test set [J. Chem. Theory Comput. 2015, 11, 5665-5687]. We argue that (in molecules) exchange is as important as screening, advocating for a Hartree-Fock reference and second-order exchange in the self-energy.
We present a coupled cluster and linear response theory to compute properties of many-electron systems at non-zero temperatures. For this purpose, we make use of the thermofield dynamics, which allows for a compact wavefunction representation of the thermal density matrix, and extend our recently developed framework [J. Chem. Phys. 150, 154109 (2019)] to parameterize the so-called thermal state using an exponential ansatz with cluster operators that create thermal quasiparticle excitations on a mean-field reference. As benchmark examples, we apply this method to both model (one-dimensional Hubbard and Pairing) as well as ab-initio (atomic Beryllium and molecular Hydrogen) systems, while comparing with exact results.
We consider the sampling of the coupled cluster expansion within stochastic coupled cluster theory. Observing the limitations of previous approaches due to the inherently non-linear behaviour of a coupled cluster wavefunction representation we propos e new approaches based upon an intuitive, well-defined condition for sampling weights and on sampling the expansion in cluster operators of different excitation levels. We term these modifications even and truncated selection respectively. Utilising both approaches demonstrates dramatically improved calculation stability as well as reduced computational and memory costs. These modifications are particularly effective at higher truncation levels owing to the large number of terms within the cluster expansion that can be neglected, as demonstrated by the reduction of the number of terms to be sampled at the level of CCSDT by 77% and at CCSDTQ56 by 98%.
A variant of coupled-cluster theory is described here, wherein the degrees of freedom are fluctuations of fragments between internally correlated states. The effects of intra-fragment correlation on the inter-fragment interaction are pre-computed and permanently folded into an effective Hamiltonian, thus avoiding redundant evaluations of local relaxations associated with coupled fluctuations. A companion article shows that a low-scaling step may be used to cast the electronic Hamiltonians of real systems into the form required. Two proof-of-principle demonstrations are presented here for non-covalent interactions. One uses harmonic oscillators, for which accuracy and algorithm structure can be carefully controlled in comparisons. The other uses small electronic systems (Be atoms) to demonstrate compelling accuracy and efficiency, also when inter-fragment electron exchange and charge transfer must be handled. Since the cost of the global calculation does not depend directly on the correlation models used for the fragments, this should provide a way to incorporate difficult electronic structure problems into large systems. This framework opens a promising path for building tunable, systematically improvable methods to capture properties of systems interacting with a large number of other systems. The extension to excited states is also straightforward.
