“…A major step forward in determinant-based FCI was introduced by Handy 2 with the idea of separate alpha and beta strings for alpha and beta spins. Following this innovation, more efficient algorithms have been proposed and implemented, including the work by Olsen et al, 3 Zarrabian et al, 4 Michael et al, 5 Rossi et al, 6 Sherrill et al, 7 Ivanic et al, 9 and others. However, despite the diversity of the algorithms, the implementations of FCI programs remain essentially in two different ways, either the integral driven approach or the configuration driven approach.…”

“…Because the FCI calculation is carried out at every CASSCF iteration, considerable effort has been expended to develop and implement efficient FCI algorithms to handle the relatively large active spaces, required by complex chemical systems. [1][2][3][4][5] Because of the simplicity in computing the coupling coefficients, almost all modern FCI algorithms are based on determinants instead of configuration state functions ͑CSFs͒. A major step forward in determinant-based FCI was introduced by Handy 2 with the idea of separate alpha and beta strings for alpha and beta spins.…”

Both the replicated and distributed data parallel full configuration interaction (FCI) implementations are described. The implementation of the FCI algorithm is organized in a hybrid strings-integral driven approach. Redundant communication is avoided, and the network performance is further optimized by an improved distributed data interface library. Examples show linear scalability of the distributed data code on both PC and workstation clusters. The new parallel implementation greatly extends the hardware on which parallel FCI calculations can be performed. The timing data on the workstation cluster show great potential for using the new parallel FCI algorithm in expanding applications of complete active space self-consistent field applications.

“…If singly excited strings are stored according to categories such excitations can simply be eliminated. With suitable string de®nitions and organization, loop structures for the evaluation of r 1 Y r 2 , and r 3 for the RAS expansion require only minor modi®cation to full CI algorithms, a procedure which is well documented in the literature [15,17,19,22].…”

The full con®guration interaction method in the space of fractionally occupied unrestricted natural orbitals (UNO-CAS method) is extended to excited states as well as to strongly correlated and reactive systems with large active spaces. This is accomplished by using restricted active space (RAS) wave functions introduced by Olsen et al. [(1988) J Chem Phys 89: 2185] and using the UNOs without the expensive orbital optimization step. In RAS, the space of active orbitals is subdivided into three groups: a group with essentially doubly occupied orbitals (RAS1), the usual CAS space (RAS2), and a space with weakly occupied active orbitals (RAS3). We select these spaces on the basis of the occupation numbers of the UNOs. All possible electron distributions are allowed in the usual CAS space, but the number of vacancies is limited in RAS1 and the number of electrons is limited in RAS3. We discuss an ecient algorithm for generating a RAS wave function. This is based on the Handy-Knowles determinantal expansion with an addressing scheme adopted for the restricted expansion. Results for both ground and excited states of azulene and free base porphyrin are presented.

The relative stability of the 3A2, 1A2, and 1A1 states of phenylnitrene is evaluated by means of ab initio calculations followed by difference‐dedicated configuration interaction (DDCI). This approach is based on effective Hamiltonian theory at a low order of perturbation to select rationally the determinants which contribute to the energy difference. The CI space built on this criterion is then treated variationally. The method allows a considerable reduction of the CI space compared with a complete CAS*SDCI calculation (where CAS stands for complete active space). Depending on the concerned energy difference, different model spaces may be chosen, as illustrated in the 3A2 → 1A2 and the 3A2 → 1A1 transitions in phenylnitrene. Since the CI space may reach considerable dimensions, a direct CI algorithm for selected CI spaces, the SCIEL algorithm, has been used to perform the calculations. The results are in excellent agreement with previous calculations and with available experimental data. © 1996 by John Wiley & Sons, Inc.
