We report on a quadratically convergent self-consistent field (QC-SCF) algorithm for the spin-projected unrestricted Hartree-Fock (SUHF) to mitigate the slow convergence of SUHF due to the presence of small eigenvalues in the orbital Hessian matrix. The new QC-SCF is robust and stable, allowing us to obtain the SUHF solutions very quickly. To demonstrate the applicability of the method, we present results for test systems with abundant non-dynamic correlation in comparison with the Roothaan repeated diagonalization, Pople extrapolation, and direct inversion of iterative subspace.
我们报告了一种二次收敛的自洽场(QC-SCF)算法,用于自旋投影无限制哈特ree-Fock(SUHF),以减轻由于轨道 Hessian 矩阵中存在小特征值而导致的 SUHF 收敛缓慢的问题。新的 QC-SCF 是鲁棒和稳定的,允许我们非常快速地获得 SUHF 解。为了演示该方法的适用性,我们给出了具有丰富非动态相关的测试系统的结果,与 Roothaan 重复对角化、Pople 外推和迭代子空间的直接反演进行了比较。
