We present an algorithm which can be used to find saddle points of non-linear functionals or functions with a large number of variables. The saddle points that can be found have only one unstable direction. The algorithm is tested on a "~" functional and yields the well known circular "critical drop

## Abstract The predictor‐corrector method for following a reduced gradient (RGF) to determine saddle points [Quapp, W. et al., J Comput Chem 1998, 19, 1087] is further accelerated by a modification allowing an implied corrector step per predictor but almost without additional costs. The stability
