[molpro-user] Expanding scf/ks procedure

[Jutho Haegeman]

As pointed out by Peter's answer below, most of what I'm trying to do  
can be done with the matrop facilities, built in in Molpro. I've been  
experimenting with matrop the last couple of days, but there's one  
thing which I think ain't possible. I'd like to solve the generalized  
eigenvalue-problem

[F'] [C] = [S][N][S] [C] [Lambda].

In this equation [F'] a self-adjusted Fock-matrix, by redefining for  
example [H0]. On the right side, I'd like to use a matrix [S']=[S][N] 
[S], which is not the standard overlap matrix.

For solving a generalized eigenvalue equation, as in the scf- 
excercise in the matrop chapter, I diagonalized [S^-1/2][F][S^-1/2],  
which was possible because [S^-1/2]=[SMH] is standard provided by  
Molpro.

But now I have a different [S']-matrix, and I have no idea of how to  
solve the eigenvalue equation with the matrop facilities. There is no  
mention in the manual of either solving a generalized eigenvalue  
equation with a built-in procedure (like DIAG), or of overwriting [S]  
(like is possible with [H0]), after which loading [SMH] would yield  
the correct [S'^-1/2], or of any other way to calculate [S'^-1/2].

Any help is greatly appreciated,

Thanks

Jutho Haegeman
