✦ Synopsis


Full-C1 calculations are performed on the PPP model of alternant cyclic polyenes using a recently developed direct full-C1 algorithm based on an expansion in Slater determinants. By exploiting the cyclic symmetry and a partial spin adaptation, we have been able to compute a full-C1 wavefunctIon and energy up to N= I8 on the CRAY YMP 8/432 of the Italian University Computing Centre CINECA. The wavefunctions and energies for the series N=4v and N= 4u t 2 are discussed and their behaviour as functions of N is analyzed
