Description

Examples

Calling Sequence

RDM1(molecule, method, options)

Parameters

molecule

-

list of lists; each list has 4 elements, the string of an atom's symbol and atom's x, y, and z coordinates

method

-

(optional)  method = name/procedure where name is one of 'HartreeFock' (default), 'DensityFunctional',

options

-

(optional) equation(s) of the form option = value where option is any valid option of the chosen method

Description

• 

The RDM1(molecule) function computed the spin-free 1-electron reduced density matrix (1-RDM).

• 

The output is a square Matrix with dimension r×r, where r is the number of the orbitals.

• 

The eigenvalues of the spin-free 1-RDM should lie in the range of [0,2].

• 

The default method is 'HartreeFock' method.

• 

The result depends upon the chosen molecule, method, and basis set among other options such as charge, spin, and symmetry.

• 

Because the methods employ Maple cache tables, the procedure only computes the 1-RDM if it has not been previously computed by calling the method directly or indirectly through another property.

Examples

Consider the molecule hydrogen fluoride

(1)

Compute the 1-RDM from Hartree-Fock method in the double-zeta ("dz") basis set
