Abstract

For electronic structure calculations on large systems, solving the self-consistent-field (SCF) equations is one of the key bottlenecks. Density matrix search methods provide an efficient linear scaling approach for circumventing the traditional O(N3) diagonalization procedure for solving the SCF equations. The conjugate gradient density matrix search (CG-DMS) method is a successful implementation of this approach. An alternative density matrix search method, QN–DMS, employs direct inversion in the iterative subspace using a quasi-Newton (QN) step to estimate the error vector. For linear polyglycine chains of 10–100 residues, the present approach scales linearly and is 30% faster than CG-DMS. For clusters of up to 300 water molecules, this method shows smoother and efficient convergence, and displays nearly linear scaling.
