 Calling Sequence Variational2RDM(molecule, options)

Parameters

 molecule - list of lists; each list has 4 elements, the string of an atom's symbol and atom's x, y, and z coordinates options - (optional) equation(s) of the form option = value where option is one of active, conditions, casscf, nuclear_gradient, return_rdm, populations, symmetry, unit, conv_tol, max_memory, max_cycle, max_cycle_sdp, initial_mo, conv_tol_hf, diis_hf, diis_space_hf, diis_start_cycle_hf, direct_scf_hf, direct_scf_tol_hf, level_shift_hf, max_cycle_hf, nuclear_gradient_hf, populations_hf

Description

 • The variational 2-RDM method computes the ground-state energy of a molecule as a variational functional of the two-electron reduced density matrix (2-RDM).  The 2-RDM is computed subject to N-representability conditions, which are necessary constraints for the 2-RDM to represent an N-electron density matrix.
 • The 2-RDM is computed directly without the many-electron wave function through a special type of constrained optimization known as semidefinite programming.
 • The optional conditions keyword controls the N-representability conditions employed in the calculation.  It can be set to the following strings: "D", "DQ", "DQG" (default), and "DQGT".
 • The optional return_rdm keyword controls whether or not the spin-free 1- and/or 2-RDMs are returned.  If set to "rdm1" (default), the 1-RDM is returned, if set to "rdm1_and_rdm2", the 1- and 2-RDMs are returned, and if set to "none", RDMs are not returned.
 • The optional active keyword can be provided to control the size of the active space.  The active keyword can be assigned to a list of two elements [N,r] containing the number N of active electrons and the number r of active orbitals or a set {} containing the indices of the molecular orbitals to be treated as active.  If the active keyword is not assigned, then a [2,2] active space is automatically chosen for even N and a [3,3] active space for odd N.
 • The optional casscf keyword controls whether or not the orbitals of the active space are optimized.  If set to false (default), the orbitals are not optimized, and if set to true, the orbitals are optimized.
