Simple Hamiltonians which exhibit drastic failures by variational determination of the two-particle reduced density matrix with some well known N-representability conditions

Calculations on small molecular systems indicate that the variational approach employing the two-particle reduced density matrix (2-RDM) as the basic unknown and applying the P, Q, G, T1, and T2 representability conditions provides an accuracy that is competitive with the best standard ab initio methods of quantum chemistry. However, in this paper we consider a simple class of Hamiltonians for which an exact ground state wave function can be written as a single Slater determinant and yet the same 2-RDM approach gives a drastically nonrepresentable result. This shows the need for stronger representability conditions than the mentioned ones.

Influence of the N-representability conditions on the variational determination of two-electron reduced density matrices for ground and excited N-electron states in the doubly occupied configuration interaction space

In this work, we analyze the effectiveness of different sets of well-known necessary N-representability conditions that are imposed on the variational determination of two-electron reduced density matrices corresponding to the ground and excited states of N-electron Hamiltonians within doubly occupied configuration interaction subspaces. The two-electron reduced density matrix elements are determined so that they are suitably related to those of higher-order reduced density matrices and other associated matrices, up to a given order, constituting positive semidefinite matrices. These conditions up to two-, three-, and four-order have been sequentially imposed on the variational calculation of the expectation values of the dispersion operator corresponding to several Hamiltonian models, obtaining the electronic spectra. These results have been contrasted with those arising from the full configuration interaction method, illuminating the sufficiency/insufficiency of the variational N-representability conditions applied.
