% SLOW UMP CONVERGENCE AND SPIN CONTAMINATION
|

The divergence of RMP expansions for stretched bonds can be easily understood from two perspectives.\cite{Gill_1988a}
|
||||
Firstly, the exact wave function becomes increasingly multi-configurational as the bond is stretched, and the
|
||||
HF wave function no longer provides a qualitatively correct reference for the perturbation expansion.
|
||||
Secondly, the energy gap between the bonding and anitbonding orbitals associated with the stretch becomes
|
||||
increasingly small at larger bond lengths, leading to a divergence in the Rayleigh--Schr\"odinger perturbation
|
||||
expansion Eq.~\eqref{eq:EMP2}.

Secondly, the energy gap between the bonding and antibonding orbitals associated with the stretch becomes
|
||||
increasingly small at larger bond lengths, \titou{leading to a divergence, for example, in the second-order MP correction \eqref{eq:EMP2}.}
|
||||
In contrast, the origin of slow UMP convergence is less obvious as the reference UHF energy remains
|
||||
qualitatively correct at large bond lengths and the orbital degeneracy is avoided.
|
||||
Furthermore, this slow convergence can also be observed in molecules with a UHF ground state at the equilibrium

The link between slow UMP convergence and this spin-contamination was first systematically investigated

by Gill \etal\ using the minimal basis \ce{H2} model.\cite{Gill_1988}

In this work, the authors compared \titou{the UMP series with the exact RHF- and UHF-based FCI expansions (T2: I don't understand this)}

and identified that the slow UMP convergence arises from its failure to correctly predict the amplitude of the
|

low-lying double excitation.
|
||||
This erroneous description of the double excitation amplitude has the same origin as the spin-contamination in the reference
|
||||
UHF wave function, creating the first direct link between spin-contamination and slow UMP convergence.\cite{Gill_1988}
