RESUMO
The completely renormalized equation-of-motion coupled-cluster approach with singles, doubles, and noniterative triples [CR-EOMCCSD(T)] has proven to be a reliable tool in describing vertical excitation energies in small and medium size molecules. In order to reduce the high numerical cost of the genuine CR-EOMCCSD(T) method and make noniterative CR-EOMCCSD(T) approaches applicable to large molecular systems, two active-space variants of this formalism [the CR-EOMCCSd(t)-II and CR-EOMCCSd(t)-III methods], based on two different choices of the subspace of triply excited configurations employed to construct noniterative correction, are introduced. In calculations for green fluorescent protein (GFP) and free-base porphyrin, where the CR-EOMCCSD(T) results are available, we show good agreement between the active-space CR-EOMCCSD(T) (variant II) and full CR-EOMCCSD(T) excitation energies. For the oligoporphyrin dimer (P(2)TA) active-space CR-EOMCCSD(T) results provide reasonable agreement with experimentally inferred data. For all systems considered we demonstrated that the active-space CR-EOMCCSD(T) corrections lower the EOMCCSD (iterative equation-of-motion coupled-cluster method with singles and doubles) excitation energies by 0.2 and 0.3 eV, which leads to a better agreement with experiment. We also discuss the quality of basis sets used and compare EOMCC excitation energies with excitation energies obtained with other methods. In particular, we demonstrate that for GFP and FBP Sadlej's TZP and cc-pVTZ basis sets lead to a similar quality of the EOMCC results. The performance of the CR-EOMCCSD(T) implementation is discussed from the point of view of timings of iterative parts and scalability of the most expensive, N(7), part of the calculation. In the latter case the scalability across 34 008 processors is reported.

A novel parallel algorithm for noniterative multireference coupled cluster (MRCC) theories, which merges recently introduced reference-level parallelism (RLP) [Bhaskaran-Nair, K.; Brabec, J.; Aprà, E.; van Dam, H. J. J.; Pittner, J.; Kowalski, K. J. Chem. Phys.2012, 137, 094112] with the possibility of accelerating numerical calculations using graphics processing units (GPUs) is presented. We discuss the performance of this approach applied to the MRCCSD(T) method (iterative singles and doubles and perturbative triples), where the corrections due to triples are added to the diagonal elements of the MRCCSD effective Hamiltonian matrix. The performance of the combined RLP/GPU algorithm is illustrated on the example of the Brillouin-Wigner (BW) and Mukherjee (Mk) state-specific MRCCSD(T) formulations.
RESUMO
The details of the graphical processing unit (GPU) implementation of the most computationally intensive (T)-part of the recently introduced regularized CCSD(T) (Reg-CCSD(T)) method [ Kowalski , K. ; Valiev , M. J. Chem. Phys. 2009 , 131 , 234107 ] for calculating electronic energies of strongly correlated systems are discussed. Parallel tests performed for several molecular systems show very good scalability of the triples part of the Reg-CCSD(T) approach. We also discuss the performance of the Reg-CCSD(T) GPU implementation as a function of the parameters defining the partitioning of the spinorbital domain (tiling structure). The accuracy of the Reg-CCSD(T) method is illustrated on three examples: the methyfluoride molecule, dissociation of dodecane, and open-shell Spiro cation (5,5'(4H,4H')-spirobi[cyclopenta[c]pyrrole] 2,2',6,6'-tetrahydro cation), which is a frequently used model to study electron transfer processes. It is demonstrated that a simple regularization of the cluster amplitudes used in the noniterative corrections accounting for the effect of triply excited configurations significantly improves the accuracies of ground-state energies in the presence of strong quasidegeneracy effects. For methylfluoride, we compare the Reg-CCSD(T) results with the CR-CC(2,3) and CCSDT energies, whereas for Spiro cation we compare Reg-CCSD(T) results with the energies obtained with completely renormalized CCSD(T) method. Performance tests for the Spiro, dodecane, and uracil molecules are also discussed.
