Abstract
Abstract We propose a possible generalization of Gaussian-type orbital (GTO) bases by means of canonical tensor products. The present work focus on the application of tensor products as an alternative to conventional GTO based density fitting schemes. Tensor product approximation leads to highly nonlinear optimization problems which require sophisticated algorithms. We give a brief description of the optimization problem and algorithm. The present work extends our previous paper [S. R. Chinnamsetty, M. Espig, B. N. Khoromskij, W. Hackbusch and H.-J. Flad, J. Chem. Phys. 127 (2007), 084110], where we discussed tensor product approximations of the electron density and the Hartree potential, to orbital products which are required for the exchange part of Hartree-Fock and in post Hartree-Fock methods. We provide a detailed error analysis for the Coulomb and exchange terms in Hartree-Fock calculations. Furthermore, a comparison is given between all-electron and pseudopotential calculations.
