“…One way to deal with the basis-size problem is to use basis functions that are not products of functions of a single variable [27,28,29,30,23,24,20,31,32,33,21]. Another strategy is to use product functions but only a fraction of the full product basis [34,35,36,37,38,39,40,41,42]. Often many of the functions in a product basis have large zeroth order energies.…”
