mp2 - Moller-Plesset Perburbation Theory

The module determines the second-order Moller-Plesset energy and one-particle density matrix (OPDM) for RHF, UHF, and ROHF (using semicanonical orbitals) references. Frozen orbitals can be used when computing the energy but not the OPDM.

Input for this program is read from the file input.dat. The following keywords are valid:

Specifies the type of wave function desired. The only valid entry at the present is MP2. There is no default.

Specifies the type of orbitals used for the single-determinant reference function. Valid entries include RHF, UHF, and ROHF. There is no default.

Determines the verbosity of the output. A value of 0 (the default) specifies minimal printing.

Selects the priority type for maintaining the automatic memory cache used by the DPD codes. (See libdpd.html for further details.) A value of LOW (the default) selects a "low priority" scheme in which the deletion of items from the cache is based on pre-programmed priorities. A value of LRU selects a "least recently used" scheme in which the oldest item in the cache will be the first one deleted.

Selects the level of automatic cacheing desired in the storage of various amplitudes, integrals, and intermediates in the coupled cluster procedure. A value of 0 retains no quantities in cache, while a level of 6 attempts to store all quantities in cache. For particularly large calculations, a value of 0 may help with certain types of memory problems. The default is 2, which means that all four-index quantites with up to two virtual-orbital indices (e.g., <ij|ab> integrals) may be held in the cache.

If TRUE calculate the one-particle density matrix and make OPDM_WRITE default to TRUE. The default value of OPDM is FALSE.

Flag for whether or not to write the one-particle density matrix to disk.

Flag for whether or not to print the one-particle density matrix.
