Simple and inexpensive perturbative correction schemes for antisymmetric products of nonorthogonal geminals

A new multireference perturbation approach has been developed for the recently proposed AP1roG scheme, a computationally facile parametrization of an antisymmetric product of nonorthogonal geminals. This perturbation theory of second-order closely follows the biorthogonal treatment from multiconfiguration perturbation theory as introduced by Surján et al., but makes use of the additional feature of AP1roG that the expansion coefficients within …
