In quantum chemistry, obtaining a systems mean-field solution and incorporating electron correlation in a post Hartree-Fock (HF) manner comprise one of the standard protocols for ground-state calculations. In principle, this scheme can also describe excited states but is not widely used at present, primarily due to the difficulty of locating the mean-field excited states. With recent developments in excited-state orbital relaxation, self-consistent excited-state solutions can now be located routinely at various levels of theory. In this work, we explore the possibility of correcting HF excited states using M{o}ller-Plesset perturbation theory to the second order. Among various PT2 variants, we find that the restricted open-shell MP2 (ROMP2) gives excitation energies comparable to the best density functional theory results, delivering $sim 0.2$ eV mean unsigned error over a wide range of single-configuration state function excitations, at only non-iterative $O(N^5)$ computational scaling.

The calculation of the MP2 correlation energy for extended systems can be viewed as a multi-dimensional integral in the thermodynamic limit, and the standard method for evaluating the MP2 energy can be viewed as a trapezoidal quadrature scheme. We de
monstrate that existing analysis neglects certain contributions due to the non-smoothness of the integrand, and may significantly underestimate finite-size errors. We propose a new staggered mesh method, which uses two staggered Monkhorst-Pack meshes for occupied and virtual orbitals, respectively, to compute the MP2 energy. The staggered mesh method circumvents a significant error source in the standard method, in which certain quadrature nodes are always placed on points where the integrand is discontinuous. One significant advantage of the proposed method is that there are no tunable parameters, and the additional numerical effort needed can be negligible compared to the standard MP2 calculation. Numerical results indicate that the staggered mesh method can be particularly advantageous for quasi-1D systems, as well as quasi-2D and 3D systems with certain symmetries.
Despite decades of practice, finite-size errors in many widely used electronic structure theories for periodic systems remain poorly understood. For periodic systems using a general Monkhorst-Pack grid, there has been no rigorous analysis of the fini
te-size error in the Hartree-Fock theory (HF) and the second order M{o}ller-Plesset perturbation theory (MP2), which are the simplest wavefunction based method, and the simplest post-Hartree-Fock method, respectively. Such calculations can be viewed as a multi-dimensional integral discretized with certain trapezoidal rules. Due to the Coulomb singularity, the integrand has many points of discontinuity in general, and standard error analysis based on the Euler-Maclaurin formula gives overly pessimistic results. The lack of analytic understanding of finite-size errors also impedes the development of effective finite-size correction schemes. We propose a unified method to obtain sharp convergence rates of finite-size errors for the periodic HF and MP2 theories. Our main technical advancement is a generalization of the result of [Lyness, 1976] for obtaining sharp convergence rates of the trapezoidal rule for a class of non-smooth integrands. Our result is applicable to three-dimensional bulk systems as well as low dimensional systems (such as nanowires and 2D materials). Our unified analysis also allows us to prove the effectiveness of the Madelung-constant correction to the Fock exchange energy, and the effectiveness of a recently proposed staggered mesh method for periodic MP2 calculations [Xing, Li, Lin, 2021]. Our analysis connects the effectiveness of the staggered mesh method with integrands with removable singularities, and suggests a new staggered mesh method for reducing finite-size errors of periodic HF calculations.
We report on a formulation and implementation of a scheme to compute NMR shieldings at second-order Moller-Plesset (MP2) perturbation theory using gauge-including atomic orbitals (GIAOs) to ensure gauge-origin independence and Cholesky decomposition
(CD) to handle unperturbed as well as perturbed two-electron integrals. We investigate the accuracy of the CD for the derivatives of the two-electron integrals with respect to an external magnetic field as well as for the computed NMR shieldings, before we illustrate the applicability of our CD based GIAO-MP2 scheme in calculations involving up to about one hundred atoms and more than one thousand basis functions.
We show that by working in a basis similar to that of the natural transition orbitals and using a modified zeroth order Hamiltonian, the cost of a recently-introduced perturbative correction to excited state mean field theory can be reduced from seve
nth to fifth order in the system size. The (occupied)$^2$(virtual)$^3$ asymptotic scaling matches that of ground state second order M{o}ller-Plesset theory, but with a significantly higher prefactor because the bottleneck is iterative: it appears in the Krylov-subspace-based solution of the linear equation that yields the first order wave function. Here we discuss the details of the modified zeroth order Hamiltonian we use to reduce the cost as well as the automatic code generation process we used to derive and verify the cost scaling of the different terms. Overall, we find that our modifications have little impact on the methods accuracy, which remains competitive with singles and doubles equation-of-motion coupled cluster.
We present a linear-response formulation of density cumulant theory (DCT) that provides a balanced and accurate description of many electronic states simultaneously. In the original DCT formulation, only information about a single electronic state (u
sually, the ground state) is obtained. We discuss the derivation of linear-response DCT, present its implementation for the ODC-12 method (LR-ODC-12), and benchmark its performance for excitation energies in small molecules (N$_2$, CO, HCN, HNC, C$_2$H$_2$, and H$_2$CO), as well as challenging excited states in ethylene, butadiene, and hexatriene. For small molecules, LR-ODC-12 shows smaller mean absolute errors in excitation energies than equation-of-motion coupled cluster theory with single and double excitations (EOM-CCSD), relative to the reference data from EOM-CCSDT. In a study of butadiene and hexatriene, LR-ODC-12 correctly describes the relative energies of the singly-excited $1^1mathrm{B_{u}}$ and the doubly-excited $2^1mathrm{A_{g}}$ states, in excellent agreement with highly accurate semistochastic heat-bath configuration interaction results, while EOM-CCSD overestimates the energy of the $2^1mathrm{A_{g}}$ state by almost 1 eV. Our results demonstrate that linear-response DCT is a promising theoretical approach for excited states of molecules.
