Multireference coupled cluster method for electronic structure of molecules

TLDR
In this paper, the authors present a systematic derivation of the multireference coupled cluster theory based on the single reference formalism, which is essential for the correct theoretical determination of dissociation energies as well as other molecular properties.
Abstract
In this review we present a systematic derivation of the multireference coupled cluster theory based on the single reference formalism. The coupled cluster theories have recently emerged as one of the major method development activities in the electronic structure theory of atoms and molecules. Due to its size-extensive nature, using the coupled cluster method the total electronic energy of the system can be determined with the same relative accuracy as the total electronic energies of the fragments which the system separates into in the process of chemical decomposition. This feature is essential for the correct theoretical determination of dissociation energies as well as other molecular properties. One of the most difficult challenges in advancing the coupled cluster theory has been the development of the multireference coupled cluster methodology, i.e. generating a scheme which allows the reference function to incorporate more than one Slater determinant. Such development would enable a very ...

Recent advances in electronic structure theory: Method of moments of coupled-cluster equations and renormalized coupled-cluster approaches

TL;DR: The main principle of all MMCC methods is that of the non-iterative energy corrections which, when added to the ground and excited-state energies obtained in the standard CC calculations, such as CCSD or EOMCCSD, recover the exact, full configuration interaction (CI) energies as mentioned in this paper.
