Generalized valence bond wave functions in quantum Monte Carlo [PDF]
We present a technique for using quantum Monte Carlo (QMC) to obtain high quality energy differences. We use generalized valence bond (GVB) wave functions, for an intuitive approach to capturing the important sources of static correlation, without ...

Valence Bond Theory Allows a Generalized Description of Hydrogen Bonding
This paper describes the nature of the hydrogen bond (HB), B:---H-A, using valence bond theory (VBT). Our analysis shows that the most important HB interactions are polarization and charge transfer, and their corresponding sum displays a pattern that is identical for a variety of energy decomposition analysis (EDA) methods.

Generalized Valence Bond Perfect-Pairing Made Versatile Through Electron-Pairs Embedding [PDF]
We present an electron-pairs-based method employing a generalized valence bond perfect-pairing (GVB-PP) ansatz that provides a uniformly accurate description of systems where various types of electron correlation play a role and the GVB-PP wave function is a suitable reference.

Negativity in the generalized Valence Bond Solid state [PDF]
Using a graphical presentation of the spin $S$ one dimensional Valence Bond Solid (VBS) state, based on the representation theory of the $SU(2)$ Lie-algebra of spins, we compute the spectrum of a mixed state reduced density matrix. This mixed state of two blocks of spins $A$ and $B$ is obtained by tracing out the spins outside $A$ and $B$, in the pure ...

Molecular interactions in electron-groups embedding generalized valence bond picture [PDF]
Theoretical description of molecular interactions remains a challenge for computational chemistry. In particular, systems dominated by static correlation, in which bonds are stretched or twisted, are often beyond capabilities of methods based on a single-electron approximation, being usually a method of choice.

Insights into the Electronic Structure of Molecules from Generalized Valence Bond Theory [PDF]
In this article we describe the unique insights into the electronic structure of molecules provided by generalized valence bond (GVB) theory. We consider selected prototypical hydrocarbons as well as a number of hypervalent molecules and a set of first- and second-row valence isoelectronic species.

A generalized valence bond basis for the half-filled Hubbard model
I present a non-orthogonal and overcomplete set of states that spans the S_tot=0 Hilbert subspace for a fermionic system with four possible spin configurations per site, on a half-filled lattice with an even number of sites. This set consists of possible pairing of the spins into three bond types: singlet bonds and positive and negative charge bonds ...
