✦ Synopsis


Abstract

A new method is presented for the variational calculation of a set of vectors under the condition that the metric of the vectors remains unchanged through the process of variation. Application of this method to typical measures (energy, overlap, distance, etc.) in quantum chemistry gives rise to new variational equations, for which the solution yields the Löwdin symmetric orthonormalization, the Kashiwagi–Sasaki generalization, the symmetric deorthogonalization, and the Adams localization, etc.

## Abstract It is shown that application of the orthonormality‐constrained variation method to the absolute squares of three kinds of overlap integrals leads to eigenvalue equations and of which the eigenvectors belonging to maximum (minimum) eigenvalues are the maximum (minimum) overlap, localized

## Abstract The method of orthonormality‐constrained variation is extended using a dual‐basis set instead of a single orthonormal basis. The complete and the partial variation methods are discussed and applied to electronic systems. It is found that the present formulation leads to the most general
