TLDR
Specific developments discussed include fast methods for density functional theory calculations, linear scaling evaluation of energies, NMR chemical shifts and electric properties, fast auxiliary basis function methods for correlated energies and gradients, equation-of-motion coupled cluster methods for ground and excited states, geminal wavefunctions, embedding methods and techniques for exploring potential energy surfaces.
Abstract
Advances in theory and algorithms for electronic structure calculations must be incorporated into program packages to enable them to become routinely used by the broader chemical community. This work reviews advances made over the past five years or so that constitute the major improvements contained in a new release of the Q-Chem quantum chemistry package, together with illustrative timings and applications. Specific developments discussed include fast methods for density functional theory calculations, linear scaling evaluation of energies, NMR chemical shifts and electric properties, fast auxiliary basis function methods for correlated energies and gradients, equation-of-motion coupled cluster methods for ground and excited states, geminal wavefunctions, embedding methods and techniques for exploring potential energy surfaces.

Long-range corrected hybrid density functionals with damped atom–atom dispersion corrections

TL;DR: The re-optimization of a recently proposed long-range corrected hybrid density functional, omegaB97X-D, to include empirical atom-atom dispersion corrections yields satisfactory accuracy for thermochemistry, kinetics, and non-covalent interactions.

The impact of the self-interaction error on the density functional theory description of dissociating radical cations: Ionic and covalent dissociation limits

TL;DR: The calculated differences between ionic and covalent dissociation for 1, 2, and 3 provide an excellent criterion for determining the basic failures of density functional theory, self-interaction corrected densityfunctional theory, and other methods.

Auxiliary basis expansions for large-scale electronic structure calculations

TL;DR: The Coulomb metric fitting equations also involve divergent matrix elements for extended systems treated with periodic boundary conditions, and the sparsity of the fit coefficients is assessed on simple hydrocarbon molecules, and shows quite early onset of linear growth in the number of significant coefficients with system size.

Optimization of the Lennard‐Jones parameters for a combined ab initio quantum mechanical and molecular mechanical potential using the 3‐21G basis set

TL;DR: In this article, a combined ab initio quantum mechanical and molecular mechanical (AI-QM/MM) potential for use in molecular modeling and simulation has been described, and a procedure for deriving the empirical parameters embedded in a combined QM/M model and suggest a set of Lennard-Jones parameters for the combined AB-21G and MM OPLS-TIP3P potential.

Structure/function correlations of proteins using MM, QM/MM, and related approaches: methods, concepts, pitfalls, and current progress.

TL;DR: The chapter reviews the classical force field approaches and their use in macromolecular modeling—such as molecular mechanics, molecular dynamics, and evaluation of free energy using the free energy perturbation (FEP) and linear response approximation (LRA) approaches.

A second-order correction to singles and doubles coupled-cluster methods based on a perturbative expansion of a similarity-transformed Hamiltonian

TL;DR: In this paper, a perturbative expansion of the Hamiltonian formed by a similarity transformation of the normal Hamiltonian is proposed for single-reference coupled-cluster based methods.
