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 seventh 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.

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.
We present a generalization of the variational principle that is compatible with any Hamiltonian eigenstate that can be specified uniquely by a list of properties. This variational principle appears to be compatible with a wide range of electronic st
ructure methods, including mean-field theory, density functional theory, multi-reference theory, and quantum Monte Carlo. Like the standard variational principle, this generalized variational principle amounts to the optimization of a nonlinear function that, in the limit of an arbitrarily flexible wave function, has the desired Hamiltonian eigenstate as its global minimum. Unlike the standard variational principle, it can target excited states and select individual states in cases of degeneracy or near-degeneracy. As an initial demonstration of how this approach can be useful in practice, we employ it to improve the optimization efficiency of excited state mean field theory by an order of magnitude. With this improved optimization, we are able to demonstrate that the accuracy of the corresponding second-order perturbation theory rivals that of singles-and-doubles equation-of-motion coupled cluster in a substantially broader set of molecules than could be explored by our previous optimization methodology.
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
A set of density functionals coming from different rungs on Jacobs ladder are employed to evaluate the electronic excited states of three Ru(II) complexes. While most studies on the performance of density functionals compare the vertical excitation e
nergies, in this work we focus on the energy gaps between the electronic excited states, of the same and different multiplicity. Excited state energy gaps are important for example to determine radiationless transition probabilities. Besides energies, a functional should deliver the correct state character and state ordering. Therefore, wavefunction overlaps are introduced to systematically evaluate the effect of different functionals on the character of the excited states. As a reference, the energies and state characters from multi-state second-order perturbation theory complete active space (MS-CASPT2) are used. In comparison to MS-CASPT2, it is found that while hybrid functionals provide better vertical excitation energies, pure functionals typically give more accurate excited state energy gaps. Pure functionals are also found to reproduce the state character and ordering in closer agreement to MS-CASPT2 than the hybrid functionals.
The strongly-contracted variant of second order N -electron valence state perturbation theory (NEVPT2) is an efficient perturbative method to treat dynamic correlation without the problems of intruder states or level shifts, while the density matrix
renormalization group (DMRG) provides the capability to tackle static correlation in large active spaces. We present a combination of the DMRG and strongly-contracted NEVPT2 (DMRG-SC-NEVPT2) that uses an efficient algorithm to compute high order reduced density matrices from DMRG wave functions. The capabilities of DMRG-SC-NEVPT2 are demonstrated on calculations of the chromium dimer potential energy curve at the basis set limit, and the excitation energies of poly-p-phenylene vinylene trimer (PPV(n=3)).
