The coupled pair functional (CPF). A size consistent modification of the CI(SD) based on an energy functional
Abstract
A modification of the CI(SD) energy functional is proposed which leads to size consistency through the use of partial normalization denominators. The method is derived from simple principles: correct description of separated two-electron systems and certain invariance requirements. This approach is connected to CEPA-1. The theoretical framework allows for a simple rationalization of connections between CI(SD), CEPA-1, and the linear version of CP–MET. As demonstrative applications we report comparisons with full CI calculations for BH, NH3, H2O, HF, and Re, De for F2, N2, O2, Cl2, NO, and CO obtained for very large basis sets.

About these checks
Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.
Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.
Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
