Multiresolution quantum chemistry in multiwavelet bases: Hartree–Fock exchange
In a previous study [R. J. Harrison et al., J. Chem. Phys. (in press)] we reported an efficient, accurate multiresolution solver for the Kohn–Sham self-consisitent field (KS-SCF) method for gener...

Parallel, linear-scaling building-block and embedding method based on localized orbitals and orbital-specific basis sets
We present a linear scaling method for the energy minimization step of semiempirical and first-principles Hartree–Fock and Kohn–Sham calculations. It is based on the self-consistent calculat...

We propose measures of localization and cooperativity for the analysis of atomic rearrangements. We show that for both clusters and bulk material cooperative rearrangements usually have significantly lower barriers than uncooperative ones, irrespective of the degree of localization. We also find that previous methods used to sample stationary points are biased towards rearrangements of particular types. Linear interpolation between local minima in double-ended transition state searches tends to produce cooperative rearrangements, while random perturbations of all the coordinates, as sometimes used in single-ended searches, have the opposite effect. ©2004 American Institute of Physics.
