The previously proposed ansatz for density cumulant theory that combines orbital-optimization and a parameterization of the 2-electron reduced density matrix cumulant in terms of unitary coupled cluster amplitudes (OUDCT) is carefully examined. Formally, we elucidate the relationship between OUDCT and orbital-optimized unitary coupled cluster theory and show the existence of near-zero denominators in the stationarity conditions for both the exact and some approximate OUDCT methods. We implement methods of the OUDCT ansatz restricted to double excitations for numerical study, up to the fifth commutator in the Baker-Campbell-Hausdorff expansion. We find that methods derived from the ansatz beyond the previously known ODC-12 method tend to be less accurate for equilibrium properties and less reliable when attempting to describe $H2$ dissociation. New developments are needed to formulate more accurate DCT variants.

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.
We propose an orbital optimized method for unitary coupled cluster theory (OO-UCC) within the variational quantum eigensolver (VQE) framework for quantum computers. OO-UCC variationally determines the coupled cluster amplitudes and also molecular orb
ital coefficients. Owing to its fully variational nature, first-order properties are readily available. This feature allows the optimization of molecular structures in VQE without solving any additional equations. Furthermore, the method requires smaller active space and shallower quantum circuit than UCC to achieve the same accuracy. We present numerical examples of OO-UCC using quantum simulators, which include the geometry optimization of the water and ammonia molecules using analytical first derivatives of the VQE.
We present a new approach for simulating X-ray absorption spectra based on linear-response density cumulant theory (LR-DCT) [A. V. Copan and A. Yu. Sokolov, J. Chem. Theory Comput., 2018, 14, 4097 - 4108]. Our new method combines the LR-ODC-12 formul
ation of LR-DCT with core-valence separation approximation (CVS) that allows to efficiently access high-energy core-excited states. We describe our computer implementation of the CVS-approximated LR-ODC-12 method (CVS-ODC-12) and benchmark its performance by comparing simulated X-ray absorption spectra to those obtained from experiment for several small molecules. Our results demonstrate that the CVS-ODC-12 method shows a good agreement with experiment for relative spacings between transitions and their intensities, but the excitation energies are systematically overestimated. When comparing to results from excited-state coupled cluster methods with single and double excitations, the CVS-ODC-12 method shows a similar performance for intensities and peak separations, while coupled cluster spectra are less shifted, relative to experiment. An important advantage of CVS-ODC-12 is that its excitation energies are computed by diagonalizing a Hermitian matrix, which enables efficient computation of transition intensities.
Employing a local formula for the electron-electron interaction energy, we derive a self-consistent approximation for the total energy of a general $N$-electron system. Our scheme works as a local variant of the Thomas-Fermi approximation and yields
the total energy and density as a function of the external potential, the number of electrons, and the chemical potential determined upon normalization. Our tests for Hookes atoms, jellium, and model atoms up to $sim 1000$ electrons show that reasonable total energies can be obtained with almost a negligible computational cost. The results are also consistent in the important large-$N$ limit.
Time-dependent orbital-free density functional theory (TD-OFDFT) is an efficient ab-initio method for calculating the electronic dynamics of large systems. In comparison to standard TD-DFT, it computes only a single electronic state regardless of sys
tem size, but it requires an additional time-dependent Pauli potential term. We propose a nonadiabatic and nonlocal Pauli potential whose main ingredients are the time-dependent particle and current densities. Our calculations of the optical spectra of metallic and semiconductor clusters indicate that nonlocal and nonadiabatic TD-OFDFT performs accurately for metallic systems and semiquantitatively for semiconductors. This work opens the door to wide applicability of TD-OFDFT for nonequilibrium electron and electron-nuclear dynamics of materials.
