+Electronic structure theory relies heavily on approximations. \cite{Szabo_1996,Helgaker_2013,Jensen_2017}  
+Loosely speaking, to make any method practical, three main approximations are typically enforced.
 The first fundamental approximation, known as the Born-Oppenheimer (or clamped-nuclei) approximation, consists in assuming that the motion of nuclei and electrons are decoupled. \cite{Born_1927}
 The nuclei coordinates can then be treated as parameters in the electronic Hamiltonian.
-The second central approximation which makes calculations \DMJ{computationally achievable} \trashDMJ{feasible by a computer} is the basis set approximation where one introduces a set of pre-defined basis functions to represent the many-electron wave function of the system.
-In most molecular calculations, a set of one-electron, atom-centered Gaussian basis functions are introduced to expand the so-called one-electron molecular orbitals which are then used to build the many-electron Slater \DMJ{determinant(s)}.
+The second central approximation which makes calculations computationally achievable is the basis set approximation where one introduces a set of pre-defined basis functions to represent the many-electron wave function of the system.
+In most molecular calculations, a set of one-electron, atom-centered Gaussian basis functions are introduced to expand the so-called one-electron molecular orbitals which are then used to build the many-electron Slater determinant(s).
 The third and most relevant approximation in the present context is the ansatz (or form) of the electronic wave function $\Psi$.
-For example, in configuration interaction (CI) methods, the wave function is expanded as a linear combination of Slater determinants, while in (single-reference) coupled-cluster (CC) theory, \cite{Cizek_1966,Paldus_1972,Crawford_2000,Piecuch_2002b,Bartlett_2007,Shavitt_2009} a reference Slater determinant $\PsiO$ [usually taken as the Hartree-Fock (HF) wave function] is multiplied by a wave operator defined as the exponentiated excitation operator $\hT = \sum_{k=1}^\Nel \hT_k$ (where $\Nel$ is the number of electrons).\DMJ{Tk undefined then}
+For example, in configuration interaction (CI) methods, the wave function is expanded as a linear combination of Slater determinants, while in (single-reference) coupled-cluster (CC) theory, \cite{Cizek_1966,Paldus_1972,Crawford_2000,Piecuch_2002b,Bartlett_2007,Shavitt_2009} a reference Slater determinant $\PsiO$ [usually taken as the Hartree-Fock (HF) wave function] is multiplied by a wave operator defined as the exponentiated excitation operator $\hT = \sum_{k=1}^\Nel \hT_k$ (where $\Nel$ is the number of electrons and $\hT_k$ is $k$th-degree excitation operator).
 
 The truncation of $\hT$ allows to define a hierarchy of non-variational and size-extensive methods with increasing levels of accuracy:
-CC with singles and doubles (CCSD), \cite{Cizek_1966,Purvis_1982} CC with singles, doubles, and triples (CCSDT), \cite{Noga_1987a,Scuseria_1988} CC with singles, doubles, triples, and quadruples (CCSDTQ), \cite{Oliphant_1991,Kucharski_1992} with corresponding \DMJ{formal} computational scalings of $\order*{\Norb^{6}}$, $\order*{\Norb^{8}}$, and $\order*{\Norb^{10}}$, respectively (where $\Norb$ denotes the number of orbitals).
+CC with singles and doubles (CCSD), \cite{Cizek_1966,Purvis_1982} CC with singles, doubles, and triples (CCSDT), \cite{Noga_1987a,Scuseria_1988} CC with singles, doubles, triples, and quadruples (CCSDTQ), \cite{Oliphant_1991,Kucharski_1992} with corresponding formal computational scalings of $\order*{\Norb^{6}}$, $\order*{\Norb^{8}}$, and $\order*{\Norb^{10}}$, respectively (where $\Norb$ denotes the number of orbitals).
 Parallel to the ``complete'' CC series presented above, an alternative family of approximate iterative CC models has been developed by the Aarhus group in the context of CC response theory \cite{Christiansen_1998} where one skips the most expensive terms and avoids the storage of the higher-excitation amplitudes: CC2, \cite{Christiansen_1995a} CC3, \cite{Christiansen_1995b,Koch_1997} and CC4. \cite{Kallay_2005,Matthews_2021}
 These iterative methods scale as $\order*{\Norb^{5}}$, $\order*{\Norb^{7}}$, and $\order*{\Norb^{9}}$, respectively, and can be seen as cheaper approximations of CCSD, CCSDT, and CCSDTQ.
-Coupled-cluster methods have been particularly successful at computing accurately \DMJ{ground and excited state} properties for small- and medium-sized molecules.

 A similar systematic truncation strategy can be applied to CI methods leading to the well-established family of methods known as CISD, CISDT, CISDTQ, \ldots~where one systematically increases the maximum excitation degree of the determinants taken into account.
 Except for full CI (FCI) where all determinants from the Hilbert space (\ie, with excitation degree up to $\Nel$) are considered, truncated CI methods are variational but lack size-consistency.
-The non-variationality of truncated CC methods being, \DMJ{in practice,} less of an issue than the size-inconsistency of the truncated CI methods, the formers have naturally overshadowed the latters in the electronic structure landscape.
-However, a different strategy \DMJ{recently came back in the limelight} in the context of CI methods. \cite{Bender_1969,Whitten_1969,Huron_1973}

 SCI methods are based on a well-known fact: amongst the very large number of determinants contained in the FCI space, only a tiny fraction of them significantly contributes to the energy.
 Accordingly, the SCI+PT2 family of methods performs a sparse exploration of the FCI space by selecting iteratively only the most energetically relevant determinants of the variational space and supplementing it with a second-order perturbative correction (PT2). \cite{Huron_1973,Garniron_2017,Sharma_2017,Garniron_2018,Garniron_2019}
-Although the formal scaling of such algorithms remains exponential, the prefactor is greatly reduced which explains their current attractiveness in the electronic structure community \DMJ{thanks to their} much wider applicability than their standard FCI parent.
+Although the formal scaling of such algorithms remains exponential, the prefactor is greatly reduced which explains their current attractiveness in the electronic structure community thanks to their much wider applicability than their standard FCI parent.
 Note that, very recently, several groups \cite{Aroeira_2021,Lee_2021,Magoulas_2021} have coupled CC and SCI methods via the externally-corrected CC methodology, \cite{Paldus_2017} showing promising performances for weakly and strongly correlated systems.
 
 A rather different strategy in order to reach the holy grail FCI limit is to resort to M{\o}ller-Plesset (MP) perturbation theory, \cite{Moller_1934}
-whose popularity originates from its black-box nature, size-extensivity, and relatively low computational scaling, making it easily applied to a broad range of molecular systems. \DMJ{enfin low-scaling, bof, disons plut™t qu'il y a des bons codes RI... je dirais plust™t low computational requirement que low scaling MP2 scale comme CC2.}
+whose popularity originates from its black-box nature, size-extensivity, and relatively low computational requirement, making it easily applied to a broad range of molecular systems. 
 Again, at least in theory, one can obtain the exact energy of the system by ramping up the degree of the perturbative series. \cite{Marie_2021a}
-The second-order M{\o}ller-Plesset (MP2) method \cite{Moller_1934} [which scales as $\order*{\Norb^{5}}$] has been broadly adopted in quantum chemistry for several decades, and is now included in the increasingly popular double-hybrid functionals \cite{Grimme_2006} alongside exact \trashDMJ{HF} exchange. \DMJ{ou exact, ou of HF form mais exact HF c'est une plŽonasme pour moi.}

 However, it is now widely recognized that the series of MP approximations might show erratic, slowly convergent, or divergent behavior that limits its applicability and systematic improvability. \cite{Laidig_1985,Knowles_1985,Handy_1985,Gill_1986,Laidig_1987,Nobes_1987,Gill_1988,Gill_1988a,Lepetit_1988,Malrieu_2003,Marie_2021a}

 Some of the technology presented here has been borrowed from complete-active-space self-consistent-field (CASSCF) methods \cite{Werner_1980,Werner_1985,Sun_2017,Kreplin_2019,Kreplin_2020} but one of the strength of SCI methods is that one does not need to select an active space and to classify orbitals as active, inactive, and virtual orbitals.
 Here, we detail our orbital optimization procedure within the CIPSI algorithm and we assume that the variational wave function is normalized, \ie, $\braket*{\Psivar}{\Psivar} = 1$.
 
 As stated in Sec.~\ref{sec:intro}, $\Evar$ depends on both the CI coefficients $\{ c_I \}_{1 \le I \le \Ndet}$ [see Eq.~\eqref{eq:Psivar}] but also on the orbital rotation parameters $\{\kappa_{pq}\}_{1 \le p,q \le \Norb}$.

+Moreover, the CI matrix must be re-diagonalized and new one- and two-electron density matrices [see Eqs.~\eqref{eq:one_dm} and \eqref{eq:two_dm}] have to be computed.
 Microiterations are stopped when a stationary point is found, \ie, $\norm{\bg}_\infty < \tau$, where $\tau$ is a user-defined threshold which has been set to $10^{-4}$ a.u.~in the present study, and a new CIPSI selection step is performed.
 Note that a tight convergence is not critical here as a new set of microiterations is performed at each macroiteration and a new production CIPSI run is performed from scratch using the final set of orbitals (see Sec.~\ref{sec:compdet}).
 This procedure might sound computationally expensive but one has to realize that the microiterations are usually performed only for relatively compact variational spaces.
-Therefore, the computational bottleneck \DMJ{of this approach} remains the diagonalization of the CI matrix for very large variational spaces.
+Therefore, the computational bottleneck of this approach remains the diagonalization of the CI matrix for very large variational spaces.
 
 To enhance the convergence of the microiteration process, we employ an adaptation of the Newton-Raphson method known as ``trust region''. \cite{Nocedal_1999}
 This popular variant defines a region where the quadratic approximation \eqref{eq:EvarTaylor} is an adequate representation of the objective energy function \eqref{eq:Evar_c_k} and it evolves during the optimization process in order to preserve the adequacy via a constraint on the step size preventing it from overstepping, \ie, $\norm{\bk} \leq \Delta$, where $\Delta$ is the trust radius.
 By introducing a Lagrange multiplier $\lambda$ to control the trust-region size, one replaces Eq.~\eqref{eq:kappa_newton} by $\bk = - (\bH + \lambda \bI)^{-1} \cdot \bg$.
 The addition of the level shift $\lambda \geq 0$ removes the negative eigenvalues and ensures the positive definiteness of the Hessian matrix by reducing the step size.
-By choosing the right value of $\lambda$, $\norm{\bk}$ is constrained \trashDMJ{into} \DMJ{within} a hypersphere of radius $\Delta$ and is able to evolve from the Newton direction at $\lambda = 0$ to the steepest descent direction as $\lambda$ grows.
+By choosing the right value of $\lambda$, $\norm{\bk}$ is constrained within a hypersphere of radius $\Delta$ and is able to evolve from the Newton direction at $\lambda = 0$ to the steepest descent direction as $\lambda$ grows.
 The evolution of the trust radius during the optimization and the use of a condition to reject the step when the energy rises ensure the convergence of the algorithm.

-Using \trashDMJ{the} \DMJ{a} SCI algorithm named \textit{Configuration Interaction using a Perturbative Selection made Iteratively} (CIPSI), we have produced FCI-quality frozen-core correlation energies for twelve cyclic molecules (see Fig.~\ref{fig:mol}) in the correlation-consistent double-$\zeta$ Dunning basis set (cc-pVDZ).
+Using the SCI algorithm named \textit{Configuration Interaction using a Perturbative Selection made Iteratively} (CIPSI), we have produced FCI-quality frozen-core correlation energies for twelve cyclic molecules (see Fig.~\ref{fig:mol}) in the correlation-consistent double-$\zeta$ Dunning basis set (cc-pVDZ).
 These estimates, which are likely accurate to a few tenths of a millihartree, have been obtained by extrapolating CIPSI energies to the FCI limit based on a set of orbitals obtained by minimizing the CIPSI variational energy.
-\trashDMJ{Compared to natural orbitals, we have shown that, by} Using energetically optimized orbitals, one can reduce the size of the variational space by one order of magnitude for the same variational energy \DMJ{as compared
-to natural orbitals.}
+Using energetically optimized orbitals, one can reduce the size of the variational space by one order of magnitude for the same variational energy as compared
+to natural orbitals.
 
 Thanks to these reference FCI energies, we have then benchmarked three families of popular electronic structure methods: i) the MP perturbation series up to fifth-order (MP2, MP3, MP4, and MP5), ii) the approximate CC series CC2, CC3, and CC4, and iii) the ``complete'' CC series CCSD, CCSDT, and CCSDTQ.
-\trashDMJ{Our results have shown that,} With a $\order*{N^7}$ scaling, MP4 provides an interesting accuracy/cost ratio for this particular set of weakly correlated systems, while MP5 systematically worsen the perturbative estimates of the correlation energy.
-\trashDMJ{We have evidenced that} \DMJ{In addition,} CC3 (where the triples are computed iteratively) \trashDMJ{also} outperforms the perturbative-triples CCSD(T) method with the same $\order*{N^7}$ scaling, its completely renormalized version CR-CC(2,3), \trashDMJ{but also} \DMJ{as well as} its more expensive parent, CCSDT.
-A similar trend is observed for the methods including quadruple excitations, where the $\order*{N^9}$ CC4 model has been shown to be \DMJ{slightly} more accurate than CCSDTQ [which scales as $\order*{N^{10}}$], \DMJ{both methods
-providing correlation energies within 2 \milli\hartree of the FCI limit.}
-Of course, the present trends are only valid for this particular class of (weakly-correlated) systems and it would be desirable to \trashDMJ{provide more} \DMJ{to have a broader} variety  \trashDMJ{in terms }of systems in the future by including more challenging systems such as, for example, transition metal compounds.
-Some work along this line is currently being  \trashDMJ{done} \DMJ{performed}.

 As perspectives, we are currently investigating the performance of the present approach for excited states in order to expand the QUEST database of vertical excitation energies. \cite{Veril_2021} 
 We hope to report on this in the near future.
