[molpro-user] Query Regarding MATROP in MOLPRO

[Sachin D Yeole]

Dear Professor Korona,
Thank you for answering the query and information. 
I also feel that matrop is correct. 
Could you give me idea of format the matrix in written in a file by "write,d,dm-1.dat" command.
May be I am mixing some elements while reading from there. 

thanks
Sachin..

Dear Sachin,

If you analyse e.g. the MP2 density matrix, then it can have a couple of 
negative eigenvalues due to either a multiconfigurational character of the 
molecule under study, or because of HF instabilities, see

Gordon et al., The Journal of Chemical Physics 110, 4199 (1999); doi: 
10.1063/1.478301

Westin Kurlancheek & Martin Head-Gordon (2009) Molecular Physics, 107:8-12, 
1223-1232

It is however strange that a method outside molpro and matrop give different 
results, but without more data it is impossible to say why. I would vote that 
matrop is correct:-)

Best wishes,

Tatiana
