Reduced-Cost Second-Order Algebraic-Diagrammatic Construction Method for Core Excitations.

ABSTRACT: Our reduced-cost scheme [J. Chem. Phys. 2018, 148, 094111] based on the frozen virtual natural orbital and natural auxiliary function approaches is extended to core excitations. The efficiency of the approximation is presented for the second-order algebraic-diagrammatic construction [ADC(2)] method invoking the core-valence separation (CVS) and density fitting approaches. The errors introduced by the present scheme are comprehensively analyzed for more than 200 excitation energies and 80 oscillator strengths, including C, N, and O K-edge excitations, as well as 1s → π* and Rydberg transitions. Our results show that significant savings can be gained in computational requirements at the expense of a moderate error. That is, the mean absolute error for the excitati
