abstract: "Quantum chemistry is a discipline which relies heavily on very
expensive numerical computations. The scaling of correlated wave function
methods lies, in their standard implementation, between O(N^5) and O(exp(N)),
where N is proportional to the system size. Therefore, performing accurate
calculations on chemically meaningful systems requires (i) approximations that
can lower the computational scaling and (ii) efficient implementations that
take advantage of modern massively parallel architectures. Quantum Package is
an open-source programming environment for quantum chemistry specially designed
for wave function methods.  Its main goal is the development of
determinant-driven selected configuration interaction (sCI) methods and
multireference second-order perturbation theory (PT2). The determinant-driven
framework allows the programmer to include any arbitrary set of determinants in
the reference space, hence providing greater methodological freedom. The sCI
method implemented in Quantum Package is based on the CIPSI (Configuration
Interaction using a Perturbative Selection made Iteratively) algorithm which
complements the variational sCI energy with a PT2 correction. Additional
external plugins have been recently added to perform calculations with
multireference coupled cluster theory and range-separated density-functional
theory. All the programs are developed with the IRPF90 code generator, which
simplifies collaborative work and the development of new features. Quantum
Package strives to allow easy implementation and experimentation of new
methods, while making parallel computation as simple and efficient as possible
on modern supercomputer architectures. Currently, the code enables, routinely,
to realize runs on roughly 2 000 CPU cores, with tens of millions of
determinants in the reference space. Moreover, we have been able to push up to
12 288 cores in order to test its parallel efficiency. In the present
manuscript, we also introduce some key new developments: (i) a renormalized
second-order perturbative correction for efficient extrapolation to the full CI
limit and (ii) a stochastic version of the CIPSI selection performed
simultaneously to the PT2 calculation at no extra cost."
