The Generalized Occupation-Restricted-Multiple-Active-Space Concept in Multiconfigurational Self-Consistent Field Methods

Chemical Physics 2021-12-01 v1

Abstract

A novel concept of multiconfigurational self-consistent field method, the generalized occupation-restricted-multiple-active-space (GORMAS) is presented. GORMAS wave functions are defined by substituting the complete active space (CAS) in ORMAS, given a pre- or a post-restriction. The GORMAS approach shows a flexible selection of active space, reduce the ineffective reference configurations from CAS dramatically. Test calculations in molecule or complex systems, CH2_2O, (H2_2O)2_2 molecule, and oxoMn(salen) are presented. They show the GORMAS wave functions achieve the similar accuracy with under 15\% dimension of reference spaces.
