1 Size-extensive wave functions for QMC A linear-scaling GVB approach Claudia Filippi, University of Twente, The Netherlands Francesco Fracchia, University of Pisa, Italy Claudio Amovilli, University of Pisa, Italy ES12 Workshop, Wake Forest University, June 5-8, 2012
2 Wave functions and QMC: A healthy obsession Advantages of QMC Favorable scaling: N 4 versus for instance N 7 in CCSD(T) Freedom on the functional form of the wave functions... Inclusion of r ij terms, non-orthogonal orbitals etc. However No optimal recipe for the construction of the trial function Multi-determinant wave function is often solution Computational cost remains high even for small systems
3 In search of different functional forms Active area of research Geminals, pfaffians, backflow... The trial wavefunction should meet the following requirements Accurate Compact functional form Good scaling with respect to the size of the system Size-consistency and size-extensivity
4 Size-extensivity and size-consistency Size-extensivity (Bartlett, Ann. Rev. Phys. Chem. 1981) Computed energy scales linearly with number of particles lim (E n+1 E n ) = C n Size-consistency: Additivity of separate chemical units E A+B = E A + E B
5 Common choice in QMC Jastrow-Slater wave functions Ψ(r 1,..., r N ) = J (r 1,..., r N ) i c i D i (r 1,..., r N ) J Jastrow correlation factor Positive function of inter-particle distances Explicit dependence on electron-electron distances r ij ci D i Determinants of single-particle orbitals Few and not millions of determinants Determines the nodal surface
6 Determinants: A complete active space expansion CAS wave functions Good for isomerization, excitations,...!"#$%&' ()*"&' +++' In principle, size-consistent and size-extensive but scales as N! Small active space Not all electrons correlated Small portion of PES described Large active space Truncation Not size-extensive/consistent... dangerous
7 CAS wave functions and atomization energies G2 set with full-valence CAS (Petruzielo et al. JCP, 2012) Nearly chemical accuracy on atomization energies MAD of 1.2 kcal/mol in DMC Very careful truncation (small thereshold + inclusion of doubles) However, C 2 H determinants!
8 CAS wave functions and excitations Cyanines dyes (Send, Valsson, Filippi, JCTC 2011) Starting determinantal wave function: Already compromises CAS (4,6) (6,10) (8,14) (10,9) (12,11) Det QMC setup: Truncation Thr Det
9 A localized description of a many-body wave function Desire From molecular orbital to local description of molecule Bonding (over 2 or more centers), antibonding, lone-pairs...! "#$%&'#(%#)!!!! *$+,! &'#(%#)!!!!! In the context of a multi-determinant wave function!
10 GVB wave functions as inspiration Inspiration from multi-determinantal expression of GVB-PP Ψ GVB PP = Φ N i=1 Limited variational flexibility Our starting point q i Φ a i a i b i b i + Ψ LGVB1 = c 0 Φ N i<j 1 2 N i=1 q i q j Φ a i a i,a j a j b i b i,b j b j +... c i Φ a i a i b i b i

12 Our starting wave function: Emerging of localization LGVB1 wave function Ψ LGVB1 = c 0 Φ 0 + Correlated all valence electrons 1 2 N i=1 c i Φ b i b i a i a i Good description of single-bond dissociation in a molecule Compact and scales linearly with system size Localization emerges naturally in MCSCF optimization
13 Improving on our starting LGVB1 wave function Tests: Use these localized orbitals in CISDTQ 1) Correlation mainly among close pairs (one atom in common)... Blocks of CAS(4,4) wave functions

25 Back to quantum Monte Carlo: Jastrow-LGVBn Ψ(r 1,..., r N ) = J (r 1,..., r N ) LGVBn Generation of localized orbitals in MCSCF with LGVB1 Optimization of orbitals, CI, Jastrow in J-LGVB1 Further increase the wave function as J-LGVBn (n> 1)
