Multireference configuration interaction theory using cumulant reconstruction with internal contraction of density matrix renormalization group wave function

Masaaki Saitow, Yuki Kurashige, Takeshi Yanai

We report development of the multireference configuration interaction (MRCI) method that can use active space scalable to much larger size references than has previously been possible. The recent development of the density matrix renormalization group (DMRG) method in multireference quantum chemistry offers the ability to describe static correlation in a large active space. The present MRCI method provides a critical correction to the DMRG reference by including high-level dynamic correlation through the CI treatment. When the DMRG and MRCI theories are combined (DMRG-MRCI), the full internal contraction of the reference in the MRCI ansatz, including contraction of semi-internal states, plays a central role. However, it is thought to involve formidable complexity because of the presence of the five-particle rank reduced-density matrix (RDM) in the Hamiltonian matrix elements. To address this complexity, we express the Hamiltonian matrix using commutators, which allows the five-particle rank RDM to be canceled out without any approximation. Then we introduce an approximation to the four-particle rank RDM by using a cumulant reconstruction from lower-particle rank RDMs. A computer-aided approach is employed to derive the exceedingly complex equations of the MRCI in tensor-contracted form and to implement them into an efficient parallel computer code. This approach extends to the size-consistency-corrected variants of MRCI, such as the MRCI+Q, MR-ACPF, and MR-AQCC methods. We demonstrate the capability of the DMRG-MRCI method in several benchmark applications, including the evaluation of single-triplet gap of free-base porphyrin using 24 active orbitals.

Spin-Adapted Externally Contracted Multireference Configuration Interaction Method Based on Selected Reference Configurations

Yinxuan Song, Wei Huang, Chungen Liu +3 more

As one kind of approximation of the full configuration interaction solution, the selected configuration interaction (sCI) methods have been shown to be valuable for large active spaces. However, the inclusion of dynamic correlation beyond large active spaces is necessary for more quantitative results. Since the sCI wave function can provide a compact reference for multireference methods, previously, we proposed an externally contracted multireference configuration interaction method using the sCI reference reconstructed from the density matrix renormalization group wave function [ J. Chem. Theory Comput. 2018, 14, 4747–4755]. The DMRG2sCI-EC-MRCI method is promising for dealing with more than 30 active orbitals and large basis sets. However, it suffers from two drawbacks: spin contamination and low efficiency when using Slater determinant bases. To solve these problems, in this work, we adopt configuration state function bases and introduce a new algorithm based on the hybrid of tree structure for convenient configuration space management and the graphical unitary group approach for efficient matrix element calculation. The test calculation of naphthalene shows that the spin-adapted version could achieve a speed-up of 6.0 compared with the previous version based on the Slater determinant. Examples of dinuclear copper(II) compound as well as Ln(III) and An(III) complexes show that the sCI-EC-MRCI can give quantitatively accurate results by including dynamic correlation over sCI for systems with large active spaces and basis sets.
