LOCALLY PROJECTED MOLECULAR ORBITAL THEORY FOR MOLECULAR INTERACTION WITH A HIGH-SPIN OPEN-SHELL MOLECULE

Locally projected molecular orbital method for molecular interactions is extended to a cluster consisting of a high-spin open-shell molecule and many closed-shell molecules. While deriving the equations, the Hartee–Fock–Roothaan equation without the orthonormal condition is obtained. The stationary conditions for molecular orbitals are expressed in a form of a generalized Brillouin condition. To obtain the molecular orbital coefficient matrix, which satisfies the stationary condition, a single Fock operator form is presented. For the locally projected molecular orbitals for the open-shell cluster, the working matrix representaion is given.
