Abstract
We recently reported that very compact coupled-cluster wave functions may be generated by selecting the most important configurations, by weight, from the full coupled-cluster wave function. Here, we consider how the choice of orbitals may affect these wave functions in the case of the symmetric dissociation of H2O. We employ unrestricted Hartree–Fock and complete-active-space self-consistent-field orbitals, as well as natural orbitals derived from a coupled-cluster singles and doubles wave function. For a given accuracy, some choices of orbitals can reduce the size of configuration interaction wave functions, but they have little effect on the weight-selected coupled-cluster wave functions.
