Abstract
We have implemented noniterative triples corrections to the energy from coupled-cluster with single and double excitations (CCSD) within the 1-electron exact two-component (1eX2C) relativistic framework. The effectiveness of both the CCSD(T) and the completely renormalized (CR) CC(2,3) approaches are demonstrated by performing all-electron computations of the potential energy curves and spectroscopic constants of copper, silver, and gold dimers in their ground electronic states. Spin-orbit coupling effects captured via the 1eX2C framework are shown to be crucial for recovering the correct shape of the potential energy curves, and the correlation effects due to triples in these systems change the dissociation energies by about 0.1-0.2 eV or about 4-7%. We also demonstrate that relativistic effects and basis set size and contraction scheme are significantly more important in Au2 than in Ag2 or Cu2.

Abstract
We introduce an approach to improve single-reference coupled cluster theory in settings where the Aufbau determinant is absent from or plays only a small role in the true wave function. Using a de-excitation operator that can be efficiently hidden within a similarity transform, we create a coupled cluster wave function in which de-excitations work to suppress the Aufbau determinant and produce wave functions dominated by other determinants. Thanks to an invertible and fully exponential form, the approach is systematically improvable, size consistent, size extensive, and, interestingly, size intensive in a granular way that should make the adoption of some ground state techniques, such as local correlation, relatively straightforward. In this initial study, we apply the general formalism to create a state-specific method for orbital-relaxed, singly excited states. We find that this approach matches the accuracy of similar-cost equation-of-motion methods in valence excitations while offering improved accuracy for charge transfer states. We also find the approach to be more accurate than excited-state-specific perturbation theory in both types of states.

Abstract
We present a three-layer hybrid quantum mechanical/quantum embedding/molecular mechanics approach for calculating nuclear magnetic resonance (NMR) shieldings and J-couplings of molecular systems in solution. The model is based on the frozen density embedding (FDE) and polarizable fluctuating charges (FQ) and fluctuating dipoles (FQFμ) force fields and permits the accurate ab initio description of short-range nonelectrostatic interactions by means of the FDE shell and cost-effective treatment of long-range electrostatic interactions through the polarizable force field FQ(Fμ). Our approach's accuracy and potential are demonstrated by studying NMR spectra of Brooker's merocyanine in aqueous and nonaqueous solutions.

Abstract
We present an excited-state-specific coupled-cluster approach in which both the molecular orbitals and cluster amplitudes are optimized for an individual excited state. The theory is formulated via a pseudoprojection of the traditional coupled-cluster wavefunction that allows correlation effects to be introduced atop an excited-state mean field starting point. The approach shares much in common with ground-state CCSD, including size extensivity and an N6 cost scaling. Preliminary numerical tests show that, when augmented with N5 cost perturbative corrections for key terms, the method can improve over excited-state-specific second-order perturbation theory in valence, charge transfer, and Rydberg states.

Abstract
A novel approach to rapidly converging high-level coupled-cluster (CC) energetics in an automated fashion is proposed. The key idea is an adaptive selection of excitation manifolds defining higher--than--two-body components of the cluster operator inspired by CC(P;Q) moment expansions. The usefulness of the resulting methodology is illustrated by molecular examples where the goal is to recover the electronic energies obtained using the CC method with a full treatment of singly, doubly, and triply excited clusters (CCSDT) when the noniterative triples corrections to CCSD fail.

Abstract
Shallow, CNOT-efficient quantum circuits are crucial for performing accurate computational chemistry simulations on current noisy quantum hardware. Here, we explore the usefulness of noniterative energy corrections, based on the method of moments of coupled-cluster theory, for accelerating convergence toward full configuration interaction. Our preliminary numerical results relying on iteratively constructed ansätze suggest that chemically accurate energies can be obtained with substantially more compact circuits, implying enhanced resilience to gate and decoherence noise.

Abstract
The effect of the existence of several prototropic tautomers of cytosine on its UV/vis spectra and the excited state decay dynamics is studied by spectral and nonadiabatic molecular dynamics (NAMD) simulations in connection with the mixed-reference spin-flip time-dependent density functional theory (MRSF-TDDFT) method. Simulated UV/vis spectra provide a strong indication that the H3N keto-amino cytosine tautomer (the least anticipated species) may be present under experimental conditions. The NAMD simulations yield a wide range of excited state decay constants for various tautomers of cytosine, ranging from ∼1.3 ps for the biologically relevant H1N keto-amino tautomer to ∼0.1 ps for the keto-imino tautomer. The slowness of the H1N decay dynamics follows from the presence of a barrier on the excited state energy surface separating the Franck-Condon structure from the major decay funnel, the conical intersection seam. It is suggested that the experimentally observed photodecay dynamics may result from a combination of the decay processes of various tautomers (H3N in particular) present simultaneously under the experimental conditions.

Abstract
![]()
We address the problem
of intermolecular interaction energy calculations
in molecular complexes with localized excitons. Our focus is on the
correct representation of the dispersion energy. We derive an extended
Casimir-Polder formula for direct computation of this contribution
through second order in the intermolecular interaction operator V̂. An alternative formula, accurate to infinite order
in V̂, is derived within the framework of the
adiabatic connection (AC) theory. We also propose a new parametrization
of the VV10 nonlocal correlation density functional, so that it corrects
the CASSCF energy for the dispersion contribution and can be applied
to excited-state complexes. A numerical investigation is carried out
for benzene, pyridine, and peptide complexes with the local exciton
corresponding to the lowest π–π* or n– π*
states. The extended Casimir-Polder formula is implemented in the
framework of multiconfigurational symmetry-adapted perturbation theory,
SAPT(MC). A SAPT(MC) analysis shows that the creation of a localized
exciton affects mostly the electrostatic component of the interaction
energy of investigated complexes. Nevertheless, the changes in Pauli
repulsion and dispersion energies cannot be neglected. We verify the
performance of several perturbation- and AC-based methods. Best results
are obtained with a range-separated variant of an approximate AC approach
employing extended random phase approximation and CASSCF wave functions.

Abstract
Pursuing our efforts to define highly accurate estimates of the relative energies of excited states in organic molecules, we investigate, with coupled-cluster methods including iterative triples (CC3 and CCSDT), the vertical excitation energies of 10 bicyclic molecules (azulene, benzoxadiazole, benzothiadiazole, diketopyrrolopyrrole, furofuran, phthalazine, pyrrolopyrrole, quinoxaline, tetrathiafulvalene, and thienothiophene). In total, we provide aug-cc-pVTZ reference vertical excitation energies for 91 excited states of these relatively large systems. We use these reference values to benchmark various wave function methods, i.e., CIS(D), EOM-MP2, CC2, CCSD, STEOM-CCSD, CCSD(T)(a)*, CCSDR(3), CCSDT-3, ADC(2), ADC(2.5), and ADC(3), as well as some spin-scaled variants of both CC2 and ADC(2). These results are compared to those obtained previously on smaller molecules. It turns out that while the accuracy of some methods is almost unaffected by system size, e.g., CIS(D) and CC3, the performance of others can significantly deteriorate as the systems grow, e.g., EOM-MP2 and CCSD, whereas others, e.g., ADC(2) and CC2, become more accurate for larger derivatives.

Abstract
Several fluorene derivatives exhibit excited-state reactivity and relaxation dynamics that remain to be understood fully. We report here the spectral relaxation dynamics of two fluorene derivatives to evaluate the role of structural modification in the intramolecular relaxation dynamics and intermolecular interactions that characterize this family of chromophores. We have examined the time-resolved spectral relaxation dynamics of two compounds, NCy-FR0 and MK-FR0, in protic and aprotic solvents using steady-state and time-resolved emission spectroscopy and quantum chemical computations. Both compounds exhibit spectral relaxation characteristics similar to those seen in FR0, indicating that hydrogen bonding interactions between the chromophore and solvent protons play a significant role in determining the relaxation pathways available to three excited electronic states.

Abstract
Substituted fluorene structures have demonstrated unusual photochemical properties. Previous reports on the substituted fluorene Schiff base FR0-SB demonstrated super photobase behavior with a ΔpKb of ∼14 upon photoexcitation. In an effort to understand the basis for this unusual behavior, we have examined the electronic structure and relaxation dynamics of the structural precursor of FR0-SB, the aldehyde FR0, in protic and aprotic solvents using time-resolved fluorescence spectroscopy and quantum chemical calculations. The calculations show three excited singlet states in relatively close energetic proximity. The spectroscopic data are consistent with relaxation dynamics from these electronic states that depend on the presence and concentration of solvent hydroxyl functionality. These results underscore the central role of solvent hydrogen bonding to the FR0 aldehyde oxygen in mediating the relaxation dynamics within this molecule.

Abstract
Internal conversion (IC) between the two lowest singlet excited states, 11Bu+ and 21Ag-, of s-trans-butadiene and s-trans-hexatriene is investigated using a series of single- and multi- reference wave function and density functional theory (DFT) methodologies. Three independent types of the equation-of-motion coupled-cluster (EOMCC) theory capable of providing an accurate and balanced description of one- as well as two-electron transitions, abbreviated as δ-CR-EOMCC(2,3), DIP-EOMCC(4h2p){No}, and DEA-EOMCC(4p2h){Nu} or DEA-EOMCC(3p1h,4p2h){Nu}, consistently predict that the 11Bu+/21Ag- crossing in both molecules occurs along the bond length alternation coordinate. However, the analogous 11Bu+ and 21Ag- potentials obtained with some multireference approaches, such as CASSCF and MRCIS(D), as well as with the linear-response formulation of time-dependent DFT (TDDFT), do not cross. Hence, caution needs to be exercised when studying the low-lying singlet excited states of polyenes with conventional multiconfigurational methods and TDDFT. The multistate many-body perturbation theory methods, such as XMCQDPT2, do correctly reproduce the curve crossing. Among the simplest and least expensive computational methodologies, the DFT approaches that incorporate the contributions of doubly excited configurations, abbreviated as MRSF (mixed reference spin-flip) TDDFT and SSR(4,4), accurately reproduce our best EOMCC results. This is highly promising for nonadiabatic molecular dynamics simulations in larger systems.

Abstract
Two strategies are applied to evaluate the effect of the environment on the two-photon absorption (TPA) cross sections for two characteristic excited states of C2H4 upon complexation with H2O. The supermolecular strategy provides the reference complexation-induced shifts and uses either the EOM-CCSD or ADC(2) method. The embedding strategy is based on frozen-density-embedding theory (FDET) and uses only fundamental constants. The TPA cross sections from high-level supermolecular calculations are extremely basis-set-sensitive. Literature data and the present study indicate that accuracy of the absolute TPA cross sections below 100 atomic units and their shifts below 10 atomic units remains a challenge. The obtained FDET results show a similar basis-set behavior. For the largest basis set (d-aug-cc-pVQZ), TPA cross sections obtained from these two strategies are in excellent agreement. The complexation-induced shifts have the correct sign of the effect and a small (12-33%) relative error in magnitude. The deviations of the FDET-derived shifts from the reference are of similar magnitude as the reliability threshold of the reference shifts.

Abstract
We present a novel multilayer polarizable embedding approach in which the system is divided into three portions, two of which are treated using density functional theory and their interaction is based on frozen density embedding (FDE) theory, and both also mutually interact with a polarizable classical layer described using an atomistic model based on fluctuating charges (FQ). The efficacy of the model is demonstrated by extending the formalism to linear response properties and applying it to the simulation of the excitation energies of organic molecules in aqueous solution, where the solute and the first solvation shell are treated using FDE, while the rest of the solvent is modeled using FQ charges.

Abstract
We recently proposed a novel approach to converging electronic energies equivalent to high-level coupled-cluster (CC) computations by combining the deterministic CC(P;Q) formalism with the stochastic configuration interaction (CI) and CC Quantum Monte Carlo (QMC) propagations. This article extends our initial study [J. E. Deustua, J. Shen, and P. Piecuch, Phys. Rev. Lett. 119, 223003 (2017)], which focused on recovering the energies obtained with the CC method with singles, doubles, and triples (CCSDT) using the information extracted from full CI QMC and CCSDT-MC, to the CIQMC approaches truncated at triples and quadruples. It also reports our first semi-stochastic CC(P;Q) calculations aimed at converging the energies that correspond to the CC method with singles, doubles, triples, and quadruples (CCSDTQ). The ability of the semi-stochastic CC(P;Q) formalism to recover the CCSDT and CCSDTQ energies, even when electronic quasi-degeneracies and triply and quadruply excited clusters become substantial, is illustrated by a few numerical examples, including the F-F bond breaking in F2, the automerization of cyclobutadiene, and the double dissociation of the water molecule.

Abstract
Two-photon excitation (TPE) is an attractive means for controlling chemistry in both space and time. Since isoenergetic one- and two-photon excitations (OPE and TPE) in non-centrosymmetric molecules are allowed to reach the same excited state, it is usually assumed that they produce similar excited-state reactivity. We compare the solvent-to-solute excited-state proton transfer of the super photobase FR0-SB following isoenergetic OPE and TPE. We find up to 62% increased reactivity following TPE compared to OPE. From steady-state spectroscopy, we rule out the involvement of different excited states and find that OPE and TPE spectra are identical in non-polar solvents but not in polar ones. We propose that differences in the matrix elements that contribute to the two-photon absorption cross sections lead to the observed enhanced isoenergetic reactivity, consistent with the predictions of our high-level coupled-cluster-based computational protocol. We find that polar solvent configurations favor greater dipole moment change between ground and excited states, which enters the probability for TPE as the absolute value squared. This, in turn, causes a difference in the Franck-Condon region reached via TPE compared to OPE. We conclude that a new method has been found for controlling chemical reactivity via the matrix elements that affect two-photon cross sections, which may be of great utility for spatial and temporal precision chemistry.

Abstract
The basic idea of frozen-density embedding theory (FDET) is the constrained minimization of the Hohenberg-Kohn density functional EHK[ρ] performed using the auxiliary functional E_{v_{AB}}^{\rm FDET}[\Psi _A, \rho _B], where ΨA is the embedded NA-electron wavefunction and ρB(r) is a non-negative function in real space integrating to a given number of electrons NB. This choice of independent variables in the total energy functional E_{v_{AB}}^{\rm FDET}[\Psi _A, \rho _B] makes it possible to treat the corresponding two components of the total density using different methods in multi-level simulations. The application of FDET using ρB(r) reconstructed from X-ray diffraction data for a molecular crystal is demonstrated for the first time. For eight hydrogen-bonded clusters involving a chromophore (represented as ΨA) and the glycylglycine molecule [represented as ρB(r)], FDET is used to derive excitation energies. It is shown that experimental densities are suitable for use as ρB(r) in FDET-based simulations.

These features include fragmentation methods such as the fragment molecular orbital, effective fragment potential and effective fragment molecular orbital methods, hybrid MPI/OpenMP approaches to Hartree-Fock, and resolution of the identity second order perturbation theory. Many new coupled cluster theory methods have been implemented in GAMESS, as have multiple levels of density functional/tight binding theory. The role of accelerators, especially graphical processing units, is discussed in the context of the new features of LibCChem, as it is the associated problem of power consumption as the power of computers increases dramatically. The process by which a complex program suite such as GAMESS is maintained and developed is considered. Future developments are briefly summarized.

Abstract
Quantum mechanical embedding methods hold the promise to transform not just the way calculations are performed, but to significantly reduce computational costs and improve scaling for macro-molecular systems containing hundreds if not thousands of atoms. The field of embedding has grown increasingly broad with many approaches of different intersecting flavors. In this perspective, we lay out the methods into two streams: QM:MM and QM:QM, showcasing the advantages and disadvantages of both. We provide a review of the literature, the underpinning theories including our contributions, and we highlight current applications with select examples spanning both materials and life sciences. We conclude with prospects and future outlook on embedding, and our view on the use of universal test case scenarios for cross-comparisons of the many available (and future) embedding theories.

Abstract
We report on the motional and proton transfer dynamics of the super photobase FR0-SB in the series of normal alcohols C1 (methanol) through C8 (n-octanol) and ethylene glycol. Steady-state and time-resolved fluorescence data reveal that the proton abstraction dynamics of excited FR0-SB depend on the identity of the solvent and that the transfer of the proton from solvent to FR0-SB*, forming FR0-HSB+*, fundamentally alters the nature of interactions between the excited molecule and its surroundings. In its unprotonated state, solvent interactions with FR0-SB* are consistent with slip limit behavior, and in its protonated form, intermolecular interactions are consistent with a much stronger interaction of FR0-HSB+* with the deprotonated solvent RO-. We understand the excited-state population dynamics in the context of a kinetic model involving a transition state wherein FR0-HSB+* is still bound to the negatively charged alkoxide, prior to solvation of the two charged species. Data acquired in ethylene glycol confirm the hypothesis that the rotational diffusion dynamics of FR0-SB* are largely mediated by solvent viscosity while proton transfer dynamics are mediated by the lifetime of the transition state. Taken collectively, our results demonstrate that FR0-SB* extracts solvent protons efficiently and in a predictable manner, consistent with a ca. 3-fold increase in dipole moment upon photoexcitation as determined by ab initio calculations based on the equation-of-motion coupled-cluster theory.

The Lowest-Energy Isomer of C2Si2H4 Is a Bridged Ring: Reinterpretation of the Spectroscopic Data Based on DFT and Coupled-Cluster Calculations. INORGANICS 2019.

Abstract
The lowest-energy isomer of C 2 Si 2 H 4 is determined by high-accuracy ab initio calculations to be the bridged four-membered ring 1,2-didehydro-1,3-disilabicyclo[1.1.0]butane (1), contrary to prior theoretical and experimental studies favoring the three-member ring silylsilacyclopropenylidene (2). These and eight other low-lying minima on the potential energy surface are characterized and ordered by energy using the CCSD(T) method with complete basis set extrapolation, and the resulting benchmark-quality set of relative isomer energies is used to evaluate the performance of several comparatively inexpensive approaches based on many-body perturbation theory and density functional theory (DFT). Double-hybrid DFT methods are found to provide an exceptional balance of accuracy and efficiency for energy-ordering isomers. Free energy profiles are developed to reason the relatively large abundance of isomer 2 observed in previous measurements. Infrared spectra and photolysis reaction mechanisms are modeled for isomers 1 and 2, providing additional insight about previously reported spectra and photoisomerization channels.

Abstract
Open quantum systems (OQSs) are perhaps the most realistic systems one can approach through simulations. In recent years, describing OQSs with Density Functional Theory (DFT) has been a prominent avenue of research with most approaches based on a density matrix partitioning in conjunction with an ad-hoc description of system-bath interactions. We propose a different theoretical approach to OQSs based on partitioning of the electron density. Employing the machinery of subsystem DFT (and its time-dependent extension), we provide a novel way of isolating and analyzing the various terms contributing to the coupling between the system and the surrounding bath. To illustrate the theory, we provide numerical simulations on a toy system (a molecular dimer) and on a condensed phase system (solvated excimer). The simulations show that non-Markovian dynamics in the electronic system-bath interactions are important in chemical applications. For instance, we show that the superexchange mechanism of transport in donor-bridge-acceptor systems is a non-Markovian interaction between the donor-acceptor (OQS) with the bridge (bath) which is fully characterized by real-time subsystem time-dependent DFT.

Abstract
Zeolites are versatile and fascinating materials which are vital for a wide range of industries, due to their unique structural and chemical properties, which are the basis of applications in gas separation, ion exchange and catalysis. Given their economic impact, there is a powerful incentive for smart design of new materials with enhanced functionalities to obtain the best material for a given application. Over the last decades, theoretical modeling has matured to a level that model guided design has become within reach. Major hurdles have been overcome to reach this point and almost all contemporary methods in computational materials chemistry are actively used in the field of modeling zeolite chemistry and applications. Integration of complementary modeling approaches is necessary to obtain reliable predictions and rationalizations from theory. A close synergy between experimentalists and theoreticians has led to a deep understanding of the complexity of the system at hand, but also allowed the identification of shortcomings in current theoretical approaches. Inspired by the importance of zeolite characterization which can now be performed at the single atom and single molecule level from experiment, computational spectroscopy has grown in importance in the last decade. In this review most of the currently available modeling tools are introduced and illustrated on the most challenging problems in zeolite science. Directions for future model developments will be given.

Abstract
Frozen-Density-Embedding Theory (FDET) is a formalism to obtain the upper bound of the ground-state energy of the total system and the corresponding embedded wavefunction by means of Euler-Lagrange equations [T. A. Wesolowski, Phys. Rev. A 77(1), 012504 (2008)]. FDET provides the expression for the embedding potential as a functional of the electron density of the embedded species, electron density of the environment, and the field generated by other charges in the environment. Under certain conditions, FDET leads to the exact ground-state energy and density of the whole system. Following Perdew-Levy theorem on stationary states of the ground-state energy functional, the other-than-ground-state stationary states of the FDET energy functional correspond to excited states. In the present work, we analyze such use of other-than-ground-state embedded wavefunctions obtained in practical calculations, i.e., when the FDET embedding potential is approximated. Three computational approaches based on FDET, that assure self-consistent excitation energy and embedded wavefunction dealing with the issue of orthogonality of embedded wavefunctions for different states in a different manner, are proposed and discussed.

Different features of this formulation are discussed, with special concern for approximate embedding calculations. In particular, we highlight the relation between the non-integer particle-number partition scheme and the resulting embedding errors. Finally, we provide a discussion of the implications of the present theory for the derivative discontinuity issue and the calculation of chemical reactivity descriptors.

Abstract
Using the Runge-Gross theorem that establishes the foundation of time-dependent density functional theory, we prove that for a given electronic Hamiltonian, choice of initial state, and choice of fragmentation, there is a unique single-particle potential (dubbed time-dependent partition potential) which, when added to each of the preselected fragment potentials, forces the fragment densities to evolve in such a way that their sum equals the exact molecular density at all times. This uniqueness theorem suggests new ways of computing the time-dependent properties of electronic systems via fragment-time-dependent density functional theory calculations. We derive a formally exact relationship between the partition potential and the total density, and illustrate our approach on a simple model system for binary fragmentation in a laser field.

Abstract
We analyze the accuracy of the frozen density embedding (FDE) method, with hybrid and orbital-dependent exchange-correlation functionals, for the calculation of the total interaction energies of weakly interacting systems. Our investigation is motivated by the fact that these approaches require, in addition to the non-additive kinetic energy approximation, also approximate non-additive exact-exchange energies. Despite this further approximation, we find that the hybrid/orbital-dependent FDE approaches can reproduce the total energies with the same accuracy (about 1 mHa) as the one of conventional semi-local functionals. In many cases, thanks to error cancellation effects, hybrid/orbital-dependent approaches yield even the smallest error. A detailed energy-decomposition investigation is presented. Finally, the Becke-exchange functional is found to reproduce accurately the non-additive exact-exchange energies also for non-equilibrium geometries. These performances are rationalized in terms of a reduced-gradient decomposition of the non-additive exchange energy.
