Abstract

A symbolic C++ library-Tinned-has been developed for symbolic differentiation and manipulation in response theory. By recognizing different key building blocks in the density matrix-based (Thorvaldsen et al., J. Chem. Phys. 2008, 129, 214108) and coupled-cluster response theories, we have implemented their corresponding C++ symbolic classes, including but not limited to one- and two-electron operators, exchange-correlation energy and potential, and coupled-cluster operator. Formulas of response theory can be well expressed in terms of the symbolic classes in the library Tinned. Their high-order perturbation-strength derivatives can be straightforwardly computed and extracted afterwards for numerical evaluation. The library Tinned will greatly facilitate the development work of response theory and may lead to a unified framework for response theory at different levels of electronic structure theory.
