A uniform derivation is presented of the self-consistent field equations in a finite basis set. Both restricted and unrestricted Hartree-Fock (HF) theory as well as various density functional (DF) approximations are considered. The unitary…
We present here a review of the fundamental topics of Hartree-Fock theory in Quantum Chemistry. From the molecular Hamiltonian, using and discussing the Born-Oppenheimer approximation, we arrive to the Hartree and Hartree-Fock equations for…
The convergence property of a stochastic algorithm for the self-consistent field (SCF) calculations of electron structures is studied. The algorithm is formulated by rewriting the electron charges as a trace/diagonal of a matrix function,…
This article is concerned with the numerical solution of subspace optimization problems, consisting of minimizing a smooth functional over the set of orthogonal projectors of fixed rank. Such problems are encountered in particular in…
We present an algorithm and its parallel implementation for solving a self consistent problem as encountered in Hartree Fock or Density Functional Theory. The algorithm takes advantage of the sparsity of matrices through the use of local…
In this paper, we present a local convergence analysis of the self-consistent field (SCF) iteration using the density matrix as the state of a fixed-point iteration. Sufficient and almost necessary conditions for local convergence are…
Self-consistent-field (SCF) approximations formulated using Hartree-Fock (HF) or Kohn-Sham Density Functional Theory (KS-DFT) both have the potential to yield multiple solutions. However, the formal relationship between multiple solutions…
Within the constrained Hartree-Fock (CHF) theory, an analytic condition is derived to estimate whether a concept of the self-consistent mean field is realized or not in level repulsive region. The derived condition states that an iterative…
We present the implementation of a quadratically convergent Self-consistent field (QCSCF) algorithm based on an adaptive trust-radius optimization scheme for restricted open-shell Hartree-Fock (ROHF), restricted Hartree-Fock (RHF), and…
The self-consistent field method utilized for solving the Hartree-Fock (HF) problem and the closely related Kohn-Sham problem, is typically thought of as one of the cheapest methods available to quantum chemists. This intuition has been…
We present a density matrix approach for computing global solutions of Hartree-Fock theory, based on semidefinite programming (SDP), that gives upper and lower bounds on the Hartree-Fock energy of quantum systems. Equality of the upper- and…
We present a microscopic description of cluster emission processes within the Cluster--Hartree--Fock (CHF) self--consistent field (SCF) theory. The starting point is a Woods--Saxon (WS) mean field (MF) with spin--orbit and Coulomb terms.…
Self-consistent field theory (SCFT) is one of the most widely-used framework in studying the equilibrium phase behaviors of inhomogenous polymers. For liquid crystalline polymeric systems, the main numerical challenges of solving SCFT…
We present a very brief description of the Hartree-Fock method in nuclear structure physics, discuss the numerical methods used to solve the self-consistent equations, and analyze the precision and convergence properties of solutions. As an…
An implementation of the Hartree-Fock (HF) method capable of robust convergence for well-behaved arbitrary central potentials is presented. The Hartree-Fock equations are converted to a generalized eigenvalue problem by employing a B-spline…
HF-DFT, the practice of evaluating approximate density functionals on Hartree-Fock densities, has long been used in testing density functional approximations. Density-corrected DFT (DC-DFT) is a general theoretical framework for identifying…
With the widespread use of self-consistent field methods, including Hartree-Fock and Density Functional Theory, the implications of accelerating these methods are immense. To this end, we develop a tensor hypercontraction construction with…
We describe a method of solving the nuclear Skyrme-Hartree-Fock problem by using a deformed Cartesian harmonic oscillator basis. The complete list of expressions required to calculate local densities, total energy, and self-consistent…
It is well known that the self-consistent field (SCF) iteration for solving the Kohn-Sham (KS) equation often fails to converge, yet there is no clear explanation. In this paper, we investigate the SCF iteration from the perspective of…
We describe a version of an algorithm for evolving self-gravitating collections of particles that should be nearly ideal for parallel architectures. Our method is derived from the ``self-consistent field'' (SCF) approach suggested…
