multi-determinant wave function one can wish for --- in a given basis set --- is the FCI wave function.
FCI is the ultimate goal of post-HF methods, and there exists several systematic
improvements on the path from HF to FCI:
increasing the maximum degree of excitation of CI methods (CISD, CISDT,
CISDTQ, \ldots), or increasing the complete active space
(CAS) wave functions until all the orbitals are in the active space.
i) increasing the maximum degree of excitation of CI methods (CISD, CISDT,
CISDTQ, \ldots), or ii) expanding the size of a complete active space
(CAS) wave function until all the orbitals are in the active space.
Selected CI methods take a shortcut between the HF
determinant and the FCI wave function by increasing iteratively the
number of determinants on which the wave function is expanded,
selecting the determinants which are expected to contribute the most
to the FCI eigenvector. At every iteration, the lowest eigenpair is
to the FCI wave function. At each iteration, the lowest eigenpair is
extracted from the CI matrix expressed in the determinant subspace,
and the FCI energy can be estimated by computing a second-order
perturbative correction (PT2) to the variational energy, $\EPT$.
and the FCI energy can be estimated by adding up to the variational energy
a second-order perturbative correction (PT2), $\EPT$.
The magnitude of $\EPT$ is a
measure of the distance to the exact eigenvalue, and is an adjustable
parameter controlling the quality of the wave function.
Within the \emph{Configuration interaction using a perturbative
selection made iteratively} (CIPSI)\cite{Huron_1973} method, the PT2

magnitude of $\EPT$ can be made the only parameter of the algorithm,
and we choose this parameter as the convergence criterion of the CIPSI
algorithm.
