Overcoming the logic of the restrictions option
asked by Marius Retegan (2019/12/15 14:26)
I am trying to overcome the AND-only logic implemented in the restrictions option by tuning the basis set used to express the wavefunctions. The script below, which is a modified version of the ground state ligand-field calculation, uses first the standard way to get the determinants needed to express the wavefunctions, while in the second part I get the wavefunctions in a two-step fashion. This is the output for the expectation values:
Oppldots = NewOperator("ldots", NF, IndexUp, IndexDn) # <E> <S^2> <L^2> <J^2> <S_z^3d> <L_z^3d> <l.s> <F[2]> <F[4]> <Neg^3d> <Nt2g^3d><Neg^Ld> <Nt2g^Ld><N^3d> 1 -3.395 1.999 12.000 15.147 -0.905 -0.280 -0.319 -1.043 -0.925 2.189 5.989 3.823 6.000 8.178 2 -3.395 1.999 12.000 15.147 -0.000 -0.000 -0.319 -1.043 -0.925 2.189 5.989 3.823 6.000 8.178 3 -3.395 1.999 12.000 15.147 0.905 0.280 -0.319 -1.043 -0.925 2.189 5.989 3.823 6.000 8.178 # <E> <S^2> <L^2> <J^2> <S_z^3d> <L_z^3d> <l.s> <F[2]> <F[4]> <Neg^3d> <Nt2g^3d><Neg^Ld> <Nt2g^Ld><N^3d> 1 -3.320 1.999 12.000 15.214 -0.916 -0.298 -0.338 -1.039 -0.918 2.167 5.987 3.846 6.000 8.154 2 -3.320 1.999 12.000 15.214 -0.000 -0.000 -0.338 -1.039 -0.918 2.167 5.987 3.846 6.000 8.154 3 -3.320 1.999 12.000 15.214 0.916 0.298 -0.338 -1.039 -0.918 2.167 5.987 3.846 6.000 8.154
I would be grateful if someone could tell me what I need to change to get the same expectation values as in the standard calculation. Thank you. Here is the full script.

Verbosity(0) -- This tutorial calculates the ground-state of NiO within the Ligand-field theory approximation -- in Ligand field theory we approximate the solid by a single transition metal atom d-shell -- interacting with a non-interacting Ligand shell. (Nowadays in the literature often called -- a bath) For transition metal oxides one can think of the ligand orbitals as the O-2p -- orbitals. For NiO there would be six O-2p orbitals and one might expect a cluster of -- 1 Ni-d shell and 6 O-2p shells (10+36=46 spin-orbitals in total). For a theory where -- calculation times scale roughly exponential with respect to number of orbitals going from -- 10 spin-orbitals (crystal-field theory) to 46 spin-orbitals slows thing down a lot. -- There is however a simple optimization one can make to speed up the calculations, without -- changing the final answer.
