Projected Hartree-Fock theory provides an accurate description of many kinds of strong correlations but does not properly describe weakly-correlated systems. On the other hand, single-reference methods such as configuration interaction or…
Projected Hartree-Fock theory provides an accurate description of many kinds of strong correlation but does not properly describe weakly correlated systems. Coupled cluster theory, in contrast, does the opposite. It therefore seems natural…
Coupled cluster and symmetry projected Hartree-Fock are two central paradigms in electronic structure theory. However, they are very different. Single reference coupled cluster is highly successful for treating weakly correlated systems,…
Methods which aim at universal applicability must be able to describe both weak and strong electronic correlation with equal facility. Such methods are in short supply. The combination of symmetry projection for strong correlation and…
While coupled cluster theory accurately models weakly correlated quantum systems, it often fails in the presence of strong correlations where the standard mean-field picture is qualitatively incorrect. In many cases, these failures can be…
In electronic structure theory, restricted single-reference coupled cluster (CC) captures weak correlation but fails catastrophically under strong correlation. Spin-projected unrestricted Hartree-Fock (SUHF), on the other hand, misses weak…
Complex conjugation symmetry breaking and restoration generate two non-orthogonal configurations at the Hartree-Fock level that can capture static correlation naturally. In conjunction with broken spin-symmetry coupled cluster theory, the…
The past several years have seen renewed interest in the use of symmetry-projected Hartree-Fock for the description of strong correlations. Unfortunately, these symmetry-projected mean-field methods do not adequately account for dynamic…
Atomic nuclei can exhibit shape coexistence and multi-reference physics that enters in their ground states, and to accurately capture the ensuing correlations and entanglement is challenging. We address this problem by applying…
The symmetry-projected Hartree--Fock ansatz for the electronic structure problem can efficiently account for static correlation in molecules, yet it is often unable to describe dynamic correlation in a balanced manner. Here, we consider a…
In this tutorial-style review we discuss basic concepts of coupled cluster theory and recent developments that increase its computational efficiency for calculations of molecules, solids and materials in general. We will touch upon the…
The failures of single-reference coupled cluster for strongly correlated many-body systems is flagged at the mean-field level by the spontaneous breaking of one or more physical symmetries of the Hamiltonian. Restoring the symmetry of the…
Quantum cluster theories are a set of approaches for the theory of correlated and disordered lattice systems, which treat correlations within the cluster explicitly, and correlations at longer length scales either perturbatively or within a…
We extend coupled-cluster theory performed on top of a Slater determinant breaking rotational symmetry to allow for the exact restoration of the angular momentum at any truncation order. The main objective relates to the description of…
We present an excited-state-specific coupled-cluster approach in which both the molecular orbitals and cluster amplitudes are optimized for an individual excited state. The theory is formulated via a pseudoprojection of the traditional…
We present a novel approach to spin-adapted coupled cluster theory. This approach is based on the entanglement of an open-shell molecule with electrons in a non-interacting bath; together they form a closed-shell state. For the total…
A dynamical formulation of coupled cluster theory is derived using a variational principle. By allowing time-dependent single-particle functions, a high degree of adaptivity is introduced, allowing complex systems to be simulated with high…
The practical application of quantum technologies to chemical problems faces significant challenges, particularly in the treatment of realistic basis sets and the accurate inclusion of electron correlation effects. A direct approach to…
We introduce perturbation and coupled-cluster theories based on a cluster mean-field reference for describing the ground state of strongly-correlated spin systems. In cluster mean-field, the ground state wavefunction is written as a simple…
Cluster perturbation theory is a technique for calculating the spectral weight of Hubbard models of strongly correlated electrons, which combines exact diagonalizations on small clusters with strong-coupling perturbation theory at leading…
