• Authors: Tommi H\"oyn\"al\"anmaa and Tapio Rantala
• Abstract summary: We introduce the exact pseudopotential (EPP) to remove the Coulomb singularity and test it for orbitals of small atoms. We apply EPP to the Galerkin method with a basis set consisting of Deslauriers--Dubuc scaling functions on the half-infinite real interval. We find the accuracy of the EPP--Galerkin method better than both of the above mentioned methods.

• Abstract: Electronic structure calculations are mostly carried out with Coulomb potential singularity adapted basis sets like STO or contracted GTO. With other basis or for heavy elements the pseudopotentials may appear as a practical alternative. Here, we introduce the exact pseudopotential (EPP) to remove the Coulomb singularity and test it for orbitals of small atoms with the interpolating wave basis set. We apply EPP to the Galerkin method with a basis set consisting of Deslauriers--Dubuc scaling functions on the half-infinite real interval. We demonstrate the EPP--Galerkin method by computing the hydrogen atom 1s, 2s, and 2p orbitals and helium atom configurations $\mathrm{He\;1s^2}$, $\mathrm{He\;1s2s\;{}^1 S}$, and $\mathrm{He\;1s2s\;{}^3 S}$. We compare the method to the ordinary interpolating wavelet Galerkin method (OIW--Galerkin) handling the singularity at the nucleus by excluding the scaling function located at the origin from the basis. We also compare the performance of our approach to that of finite--difference approach, which is another practical method for spherical atoms. We find the accuracy of the EPP--Galerkin method better than both of the above mentioned methods.

  Neural wave functions accomplished unprecedented accuracies in approximating the ground state of many-electron systems, though at a high computational cost. Recent works proposed amortizing the cost by learning generalized wave functions across different structures and compounds instead of solving each problem independently. This work tackles the problem by defining overparametrized, fully learnable neural wave functions suitable for generalization across molecules.

  A two-dimensional hydrogen atom offers a promising alternative for describing the quantum interaction between an electron and a proton in the presence of a straight cosmic string. We calculate the eigenenergies, probability distribution function, and expected values for the hydrogen atom with logarithmic potential under the influence of the topological defect. Our model leads to an interesting analogy with excitons in a two-dimensional monolayer semiconductor located within a specific semiconductor region.

  We seek to improve the accuracy obtained for a given basis size by optimizing the choice of single-particle orbitals. Natural orbitals, which diagonalize the one-body density matrix, provide a basis which maximizes the occupation of low-lying orbitals. We explore aspects of NCCI calculations with natural orbitals for the ground state of the $p$-shell neutron halo nucleus.
