target_size

Maximum number of determinants in the variational space.

Type:

int

max_iter

Maximum selection + diagonalization cycles.

Type:

int

conv_tol_energy

Convergence threshold on total energy change (Hartree).

Type:

float

pt2_threshold

Perturbative threshold for selecting new determinants. Lower = more determinants selected per iteration.

Type:

float

selection_growth_factor

Max ratio by which the determinant space can grow each iteration.

Type:

float

max_det_per_iter

Hard cap on new determinants per iteration.

Type:

int

do_pt2_correction

Compute final PT2 energy correction after convergence.

Type:

bool

spin_restricted

Use spin-restricted (closed-shell) determinant basis. When True, each Det represents a doubly-occupied spatial-orbital configuration (spin-summed, S_z = 0). When False, uses SpinDet = (alpha_occ, beta_occ) pairs — required for open-shell or broken-spin-symmetry systems (multiplicity > 1).

Type:

bool

use_davidson

Use Davidson iterative diagonalization for ndet > davidson_threshold.

Type:

bool

davidson_threshold

Switch to Davidson when ndet exceeds this count.

Type:

int

davidson_max_iter

Maximum Davidson iterations.

Type:

int

davidson_conv_tol

Davidson residual convergence tolerance.

Type:

float

do_pt2_correction
max_det_per_iter
max_iter	Maximum number of macro-iterations.

select_eps	during candidate generation, drop the contribution of generator determinant I to candidate D when |H_DI| * max_k |c_I^k| < select_eps.
selection_growth_factor
significant_coeff	Coefficient magnitude above which a variational determinant contributes to candidate generation (max over roots).
spin_complete	For an M_s = 0 active space, close the selected set under the alpha/beta swap so the truncated roots stay (near-)spin-pure.

use_davidson
verbose	0 = silent, 1 = per-iteration, 2 = debug.

pt2_threshold: float = 1e-06

selection_growth_factor: float = 2.0

max_det_per_iter: int = 5000

do_pt2_correction: bool = True

spin_restricted: bool = True

use_davidson: bool = True

davidson_threshold: int = 50

davidson_max_iter: int = 100

davidson_conv_tol: float = 1e-08

significant_coeff: float = 0.01

Coefficient magnitude above which a variational determinant contributes to candidate generation (max over roots).

spin_complete: bool = True

For an M_s = 0 active space, close the selected set under the alpha/beta swap so the truncated roots stay (near-)spin-pure.

select_eps: float = 0.0

during candidate generation, drop the contribution of generator determinant I to candidate D when |H_DI| * max_k |c_I^k| < select_eps. 0 (default) keeps exact CIPSI numerators. The C++ backend walks presorted |H|-ordered double-excitation lists under this threshold, so enumeration stops at the first sub-threshold entry instead of visiting every virtual pair; the Python kernel applies the same predicate by brute force (identical candidate sets, the oracle for the walk).
