2010-09-01

In this paper it is shown that the complex Shavitt functions Fn(z) can be interpolated in the same way as the real Shavitt functions Fn(x) in electronic structure theory. This greatly accelerates the evaluation of exchange integrals in a mixed Gaussian and plane-wave basis. Together with other approximations reported previously this extends applications of ab ...
