Density matrix perturbation theory (DMPT) is known as a promising alternative to the Rayleigh-Schrodinger perturbation theory, in which the sum-over-state (SOS) is replaced by algorithms with perturbed density matrices as the input variables. In this article, we formulate and discuss three types of DMPT, with two of them based only on density matrices: the approach of Kussmann and Ochsenfeld [J. Chem. Phys.127, 054103 (2007)] is reformulated via the Sylvester equation, and the recursive DMPT of A.M.N. Niklasson and M. Challacombe [Phys. Rev. Lett. 92, 193001 (2004)] is extended to the hole-particle canonical purification (HPCP) from [J. Chem. Phys. 144, 091102 (2016)]. Comparison of the computational performances shows that the aformentioned methods outperform the standard SOS. The HPCP-DMPT demonstrates stable convergence profiles but at a higher computational cost when compared to the original recursive polynomial method

Variational approaches for the calculation of vibrational wave functions and energies are a natural route to obtain highly accurate results with controllable errors. However, the unfavorable scaling and the resulting high computational cost of standa
rd variational approaches limit their application to small molecules with only few vibrational modes. Here, we demonstrate how the density matrix renormalization group (DMRG) can be exploited to optimize vibrational wave functions (vDMRG) expressed as matrix product states. We study the convergence of these calculations with respect to the size of the local basis of each mode, the number of renormalized block states, and the number of DMRG sweeps required. We demonstrate the high accuracy achieved by vDMRG for small molecules that were intensively studied in the literature. We then proceed to show that the complete fingerprint region of the sarcosyn-glycin dipeptide can be calculated with vDMRG.
Recently a novel approach to find approximate exchange-correlation functionals in density-functional theory (DFT) was presented (U. Mordovina et. al., JCTC 15, 5209 (2019)), which relies on approximations to the interacting wave function using densit
y-matrix embedding theory (DMET). This approximate interacting wave function is constructed by using a projection determined by an iterative procedure that makes parts of the reduced density matrix of an auxiliary system the same as the approximate interacting density matrix. If only the diagonal of both systems are connected this leads to an approximation of the interacting-to-non-interacting mapping of the Kohn-Sham approach to DFT. Yet other choices are possible and allow to connect DMET with other DFTs such as kinetic-energy DFT or reduced density-matrix functional theory. In this work we give a detailed review of the basics of the DMET procedure from a DFT perspective and show how both approaches can be used to supplement each other. We do so explicitly for the case of a one-dimensional lattice system, as this is the simplest setting where we can apply DMET and the one that was originally presented. Among others we highlight how the mappings of DFTs can be used to identify uniquely defined auxiliary systems and auxiliary projections in DMET and how to construct approximations for different DFTs using DMET inspired projections. Such alternative approximation strategies become especially important for DFTs that are based on non-linearly coupled observables such as kinetic-energy DFT, where the Kohn-Sham fields are no longer simply obtainable by functional differentiation of an energy expression, or for reduced density-matrix functional theories, where a straightforward Kohn-Sham construction is not feasible.
The idea of using fragment embedding to circumvent the high computational scaling of accurate electronic structure methods while retaining high accuracy has been a long-standing goal for quantum chemists. Traditional fragment embedding methods mainly
focus on systems composed of weakly correlated parts and are insufficient when division across chemical bonds is unavoidable. Recently, density matrix embedding theory (DMET) and other methods based on the Schmidt decomposition have emerged as a fresh approach to this problem. Despite their success on model systems, these methods can prove difficult for realistic systems because they rely on either a rigid, non-overlapping partition of the system or a specification of some special sites (i.e. `edge and `center sites), neither of which is well-defined in general for real molecules. In this work, we present a new Schmidt decomposition-based embedding scheme called Incremental Embedding that allows the combination of arbitrary overlapping fragments without the knowledge of edge sites. This method forms a convergent hierarchy in the sense that higher accuracy can be obtained by using fragments involving more sites. The computational scaling for the first few levels is lower than that of most correlated wave function methods. We present results for several small molecules in atom-centered Gaussian basis sets and demonstrate that Incremental Embedding converges quickly with fragment size and recovers most static correlation in small basis sets even when truncated at the second lowest level.
We introduce an approximation to the short-range correlation energy functional with multide-terminantal reference involved in a variant of range-separated density-functional theory. This approximation is a local functional of the density, the density
gradient, and the on-top pair density, which locally interpolates between the standard Perdew-Burke-Ernzerhof correlation functional at vanishing range-separation parameter and the known exact asymptotic expansion at large range-separation parameter. When combined with (selected) configuration-interaction calculations for the long-range wave function, this approximation gives accurate dissociation energy curves of the H2, Li2, and Be2 molecules, and thus appears as a promising way to accurately account for static correlation in range-separated density-functional theory.
Approximate natural orbitals are investigated as a way to improve a Monte Carlo configuration interaction (MCCI) calculation. We introduce a way to approximate the natural orbitals in MCCI and test these and approximate natural orbitals from MP2 and
QCISD in MCCI calculations of single-point energies. The efficiency and accuracy of approximate natural orbitals in MCCI potential curve calculations for the double hydrogen dissociation of water, the dissociation of carbon monoxide and the dissociation of the nitrogen molecule are then considered in comparison with standard MCCI when using full configuration interaction as a benchmark. We also use the method to produce a potential curve for water in an aug-cc-pVTZ basis. A new way to quantify the accuracy of a potential curve is put forward that takes into account all of the points and that the curve can be shifted by a constant. We adapt a second-order perturbation scheme to work with MCCI (MCCIPT2) and improve the efficiency of the removal of duplicate states in the method. MCCIPT2 is tested in the calculation of a potential curve for the dissociation of nitrogen using both Slater determinants and configuration state functions.
