    DoNOF: An open-source implementation of natural-orbital-functional-based methods for quantum chemistry

    No full text
    The natural orbital functional theory (NOFT) has emerged as an alternative formalism to both density functional (DF) and wavefunction methods. In NOFT, the electronic structure is described in terms of the natural orbitals (NOs) and their occupation numbers (ONs). The approximate NOFs have proven to be more accurate than those of the density for systems with a significant multiconfigurational character, on one side, and scale better with the number of basis functions than correlated wavefunction methods, on the other side. A challenging task in NOFT is to efficiently perform orbital optimization. In this article we present DoNOF, our open source implementation based on diagonalizations that allows to obtain the resulting orbitals automatically orthogonal. The one-particle reduced-density matrix (1RDM) of the ensemble of pure-spin states provides the proper description of spin multiplets. The capabilities of the code are tested on the water molecule, namely, geometry optimization, natural and canonical representations of molecular orbitals, ionization potential, and electric moments. In DoNOF, the electron-pair-based NOFs developed in our group PNOF5, PNOF7 and PNOF7s are implemented. These JKL-only NOFs take into account most non-dynamic effects plus intrapair-dynamic electron correlation, but lack a significant part of interpair-dynamic correlation. Correlation corrections are estimated by the single-reference NOF-MP2 method that simultaneously calculates static and dynamic electron correlations taking as a reference the Slater determinant formed with the NOs of a previous PNOF calculation. The NOF-MP2 method is used to analyze the potential energy surface (PES) and the binding energy for the symmetric dissociation of the water molecule, and compare it with accurate wavefunction-based methods

    No full text
    This paper deals with the extension and the extraordinary scientific value of the works written by a great Master in Criminal Law, such as Mario Romano. The Author briefly presents some of the most relevant contributions given by Professor Mario Romano to the Criminal Science, first of all his "Commentario sistematico del codice penale" (Systematic Commentary on the penal code), a unique work. Finally, the paper talks about some topics which have been developed inside the work "Studi in onore di Mario Romano" (Studies in Honour of Mario Romano)

    Excited states by coupling Piris natural orbital functionals with extended random phase approximation

    No full text
    In this work, we extend the Piris natural orbital functionals (PNOFs) to excited states by coupling their reconstructed second-order reduced density matrices with the extended random-phase approximation (ERPA). We have named the general implementation as PNOF-ERPA, and we refer to specific cases as PNOF-ERPA0, PNOF-ERPA1 and PNOF-ERPA2, according to how the excitation operator is built. The approaches have been tested in the first excited states of H2, HeH+, LiH and Li2, showing good results compared with the full configuration interaction (FCI) method. As expected, an increase in accuracy is observed when going from ERPA0 to ERPA1 and ERPA2. We have also studied the effect of electron correlation included by PNOF5, PNOF7 and the recently proposed global NOF (GNOF) on the predicted excited states. PNOF5 appears to be good and may even provide better results in very small systems, but including more electron correlation becomes important as the system size increases, where PNOF7 and GNOF provide better results. This effect can already be seen in the excitation energies of the neon atom, where GNOF provides more accurate values than PNOF5 and PNOF7. Overall, the extension of PNOF to excited states has been successful, making the PNOF-ERPA method promising for further applications.Comment: 18 pages, 10 figure

    Molecular electric moments calculated by using natural orbital functional theory

    No full text
    The molecular electric dipole, quadrupole and octupole moments of a selected set of 21 spin-compensated molecules are determined employing the extended version of the Piris natural orbital functional 6 (PNOF6), using the triple-zeta Gaussian basis set with polarization functions developed by Sadlej, at the experimental geometries. The performance of the PNOF6 is established by carrying out a statistical analysis of the mean absolute errors with respect to the experiment. The calculated PNOF6 electric moments agree satisfactorily with the corresponding experimental data, and are in good agreement with the values obtained by accurate ab initio methods, namely, the coupled-cluster single and doubles (CCSD) and multi-reference single and double excitation configuration interaction (MRSD-CI) methods

    In this work, we explore the use of Piris natural orbital functionals (PNOFs) to calculate excited-state energies by coupling their reconstructed second-order reduced density matrix with the extended random-phase approximation (ERPA). We have named the general method PNOF-ERPA, and specific approaches are referred to as PNOF-ERPA0, PNOF-ERPA1, and PNOF-ERPA2, according to the way the excitation operator is built. The implementation has been tested in the first excited states of H2, HeH+, LiH, Li2, and N2 showing good results compared to the configuration interaction (CI) method. As expected, an increase in accuracy is observed on going from ERPA0 to ERPA1 and ERPA2. We also studied the effect of electron correlation included by PNOF5, PNOF7, and the recently proposed global NOF (GNOF) on the predicted excited states.

    L'uno e il molteplice: su Catull. 5

    No full text
    In Catull. 5, the author cleverly works out two ancient topoi (‘let’s love, because the night/death is coming’; ‘kisses are the joy of lovers’), gaining a well balanced structure of the poem. In comparison with contemporary Graeco-Roman poetry (erotic epigrams – such as Philod. AP 9, 570 –, the Epitaph of Bion), both themes are handled with a remarkable taste for originality, especially in their ‘numerical’ aspects, in order to put special emphasis on the basic contrast between nox una and basia mille
