A block-correlated coupled cluster (BCCC) method based on the generalized valence bond (GVB) wave function (GVB-BCCC in short) is proposed and implemented at the ab initio level, which represents an attractive multireference electronic structure method for strongly correlated systems. The GVB-BCCC method is demonstrated to provide accurate descriptions for multiple bond breaking in small molecules, although the GVB reference function is qualitatively wrong for the studied processes. For a challenging prototype of strongly correlated systems, tridecane with all 12 single C-C bonds at various distances, our calculations have shown that the GVB-BCCC2b method can provide highly comparable results as the density matrix renormalization group method for potential energy surfaces along simultaneous dissociation of all C-C bonds.

A full coupled-cluster expansion suitable for sparse algebraic operations is developed by expanding the commutators of the Baker-Campbell-Hausdorff series explicitly for cluster operators in binary representations. A full coupled-cluster reduction th at is capable of providing very accurate solutions of the many-body Schrodinger equation is then initiated employing screenings to the projection manifold and commutator operations. The projection manifold is iteratively updated through the single commutators $leftlangle kappa right| [hat H,hat T]left| 0 rightrangle$ comprised of the primary clusters $hat T_{lambda}$ with substantial contribution to the connectivity. The operation of the commutators is further reduced by introducing a correction, taking into account the so-called exclusion principle violating terms, that provides fast and near-variational convergence in many cases.
An implementation of coupled-cluster (CC) theory to treat atoms and molecules in finite magnetic fields is presented. The main challenges stem from the magnetic-field dependence in the Hamiltonian, or, more precisely, the appearance of the angular mo mentum operator, due to which the wave function becomes complex and which introduces a gauge-origin dependence. For this reason, an implementation of a complex CC code is required together with the use of gauge-including atomic orbitals to ensure gauge-origin independence. Results of coupled-cluster singles--doubles--perturbative-triples (CCSD(T)) calculations are presented for atoms and molecules with a focus on the dependence of correlation and binding energies on the magnetic field.
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.
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%.
The molecular polarizability describes the tendency of a molecule to deform or polarize in response to an applied electric field. As such, this quantity governs key intra- and inter-molecular interactions such as induction and dispersion, plays a key role in determining the spectroscopic signatures of molecules, and is an essential ingredient in polarizable force fields and other empirical models for collective interactions. Compared to other ground-state properties, an accurate and reliable prediction of the molecular polarizability is considerably more difficult as this response quantity is quite sensitive to the description of the underlying molecular electronic structure. In this work, we present state-of-the-art quantum mechanical calculations of the static dipole polarizability tensors of 7,211 small organic molecules computed using linear-response coupled-cluster singles and doubles theory (LR-CCSD). Using a symmetry-adapted machine-learning based approach, we demonstrate that it is possible to predict the molecular polarizability with LR-CCSD accuracy at a negligible computational cost. The employed model is quite robust and transferable, yielding molecular polarizabilities for a diverse set of 52 larger molecules (which includes challenging conjugated systems, carbohydrates, small drugs, amino acids, nucleobases, and hydrocarbon isomers) at an accuracy that exceeds that of hybrid density functional theory (DFT). The atom-centered decomposition implicit in our machine-learning approach offers some insight into the shortcomings of DFT in the prediction of this fundamental quantity of interest.
