Slow-convergence problem of CI-type approaches Slow convergence of many-electron wave functions in CI-type bases causes major problems in the description of correlation effects.

Slow-convergence problem of CI-type approaches Slow convergence of many-electron wave functions in CI-type bases causes major problems in the description of correlation effects. To overcome these problems reliable extrapolation methods are required in calculations of accurate energies. In the last decade much effort has been spent to develop methods of approximating the complete basis set (CBS) limit.

In the last decade much effort has been spent to develop methods of approximating the complete basis set (CBS) limit. The functions used in the energy extrapolation procedures are to some extend of empirical nature. However, there are several cases when guidance provided by formal mathematical results has been used. Unfortunately, there is a real scarcity of such results. Until quite recently, formal information concerning the energy convergence was available only for He-like atomic systems.

Studies on the asymptotic expansion of second-order energies (He-like systems) C. Schwartz (1962), pioneered the studies on the rate of convergence correlation energies for atoms. For the He ground state within the 1/Z expansion Perturbation Theory (1/Z PT) the increments to the second-order energy E (2) l determined by orbitals corresponding to the angular momentum quantum number l decrease according to the asymptotic formula E (2) l = a 4 (l + 1/2) 4 + a 6 (l + 1/2) 6 + O [ (l + 1/2) 8],

For l min 3: E (2) j 1j 2 (T ) (j 1 j 2) l min E (2) l (T ), l=l min Rearranging the terms on rhs we obtain: E (2) j 1j 2 (T ) min(j 1+l i,j 2+l j ) l=max( j 1 l i, j 2 l j ) c l j 1j 2 (T )E l j 1j 2 (T ) (l i and l j defined by T ).

Some examples EXAMPLE: Unnatural-parity triplet state (np) 2 3 P The only nonzero indices are: c l l 1 l 1 and cl l+1 l+1. PW/a energy increment: E (2) l = c l l 1 l 1E l l 1 l 1 + c l l+1 l+1e l l+1 l+1 The l-th term of PW/a consists of the (l 1)-th, and (l + 1)-th terms in PW/m. PW/m energy increment: E (2) ll c l 1 ll E l 1 ll + c l+1 ll E l+1 ll.

Some examples Extrapolation procedure To derive the formulae for the AE coefficients, extract from Ẽ (2) l (T ) and E l j 1 j 2 (T ), the coefficient of the lowest-k term in the (l + 1/2) k expansion. For the PW/a expansion we can to some extend follow the extrapolation procedure developed by KM. Our approach is different from that of Kutzelnigg and Morgan: We consider directly the pair energies E (2) (T ). KM studied the Hylleraas functional E[Φ] = Φ H (0) E (0) Φ + 2 Re Φ V E (1) Ψ (0), which mplies dealing with kinetic energy terms that mask the simple structure of the AE coefficients.
