A description of the ab initio quantum chemistry package GAMESS is presented. Chemical systems containing atoms through radon can be treated with wave functions ranging from the simplest closed‐shell case up to a general MCSCF case, permitting calculations at the necessary level of sophistication. Emphasis is given to novel features of the program. The parallelization strategy used in the RHF, ROHF, UHF, and GVB sections of the program is described, and detailed speecup results are given… 

The GAMESS-UK electronic structure package: algorithms, developments and applications

QMCPACK: an open source ab initio quantum Monte Carlo package for the electronic structure of atoms, molecules and solids

The QMCPACK code is specifically optimized for calculations with large numbers of electrons on the latest high performance computing architectures, including multicore central processing unit and graphical processing unit systems.

Variational grand-canonical electronic structure method for open systems.

An ab initio method is developed for variational grand-canonical molecular electronic structure of open systems based on the Gibbs-Peierls-Boguliobov inequality, with errors similar to those of the Hartree-Fock method for ground-state (zero-temperature) calculations.

Recent developments in the general atomic and molecular electronic structure system.

A discussion of many of the recently implemented features of GAMESS (General Atomic and Molecular Electronic Structure System) and LibCChem (the C++ CPU/GPU library associated with GAMESS) is presented, which include fragmentation methods, hybrid MPI/OpenMP approaches to Hartree-Fock, and resolution of the identity second order perturbation theory.

Starting SCF calculations by superposition of atomic densities

The procedure to start an SCF calculation of the general type from a sum of atomic electron densities, as implemented in GAMESS‐UK, is described, showing that the procedure is easier, and on average better, than starting from a converged minimal basis calculation and much better than using a bare nucleus Hamiltonian.

Variational approach for the electronic structure calculation on the second-order reduced density matrices and the $N$-representability problem

The reduced-density-matrix method is an promising candidate for the next generation electronic structure calculation method; it is equivalent to solve the Schr\"odinger equation for the ground state.
