Dear dr. Sin,

you may want to test the SCULPT-package, which in a way is interactive
flexible docking. For academics relatively cheap (<$USD 2000), you can
obtain a demo-version of it via WWW at http://www.intsim.com/~isigen.

If you get other more info, I would be pleased to stay informed.

Sincerely,

Andrepeter Heiner

    The default optimization method in Gaussian 94 
is the redundant geometry optimization.  You can
use Cartesian, Z-matrix or mixed coordinate in
the input, However, if you use the default optimization 
keyword, Gaussian will direct it to the redundant
geometry optimization.

In acyclic molecules, its worst performance is about the same
as Z-matrix.  In cyclic molecules, its performance
is much better than Z-matrix.  So that's why Gaussian
use it as a default optimization method.  One of
the references is:

 CY Peng, Schlegel HB., Isr. Journal of Chemistry,
33(4):449-454, 1993
   You can also see some of Baker's papers.

Dear Sir,

Would you cite a reference for the statement below, that cartesian 
optimizations outperform optimizations in internal coordinates in 
Gaussian 94?  

Many thanks.

  You can use the Cartesian coordinate generated by Spartan
directly in your Gaussian 94 input, use the default optimization
method in g94 which even performs better than Z-matrix.

Subject: Spin Contamination in DFT -- How to compute?

     dated: Sat, 30 Sep 1995 18:21:10 -0400

Dear Netters,

I am trying to compute spin contamination in DFT. My starting point
is the A. Szabo, N.S. Ostlund -- Modern Quantum Chemistry", pp. 104-107,
McGraw-Hill, New York, 1989.

Background:
Multiplicity is
   MULT = 2*S + 1
where S is the total spin quantum number having possible values
  0.0, 0.5, 1.0, 1.5, ....
S is simply 0.5 times the number of unpaired electrons. Assuming that
NALPHA is the number of electrons with spin alpha, and NBETA is the
number of electrons with spin beta, S = 0.5 * (NALPHA - NBETA) if
we assume that NALPHA >= NBETA.
The eigenvalue of the operator of square of total spin is denoted
by S2, and is NOT EQUAL to S*S but is equal to:
   S2 = S * (S + 1)
To calculate S from S2 the following formula (solution of quadratic
equation) can be used:
     S = 0.5*(SQRT(1.0 + 4.0*S2) - 1.0)
Another quantum number:
   MS = -S, -S+1, ... S-1, S
is the quantum number (and also the eigenvalue) of the z-component
of the total spin. Now,
   S2 = 0.5*(NALPHA-NBETA)*(0.5*(NALPHA-NBETA) + 1)
i.e., the "exact value" of eigenvalue of square of spin (SEXCT) should be:
   S2EXCT = S2 = 0.25*(NALPHA - NBETA)(NALPHA - NBETA + 2)
and the "exact" multiplictity should be:
   MULTEX = NALPHA - NBETA + 1
I assume that the formula for the expectation value of S2 (S2EXPT),
given on page 107 of Szabo & Ostlund as:
   S2EXPT = S2EXCT + NBETA - sum{i=1,N} sum{j=1,N} |(SAB[i,j])|^2
for the case of NALPHA >= NBETA (the meaning of N is not defined),
can be extended to fractional occupation numbers as:
S2EXPT = S2EXCT + NBETA -
   sum{i=1,NLA} sum{j=1,NLB} DOCA[i] * DOCB[j] * |(SAB[i,j])^2|
where NLA is the number of occupied (possibly with fractional
occupation numbers) ALPHA MO's, NLB is the number of occupied (possibly
fractionally) BETA MO's, DOCA[i] is the (fractional) occupation number on i-th
ALPHA orbital, DOCB[j] is the (possibly) fractional occupation number on j-th
orbital, SAB[i,j] = <PSIA[i]|PSIB[j]> is the overlap integral between
PSIA[i] (the i-th MO for spin ALPHA) and PSIB[j] (the j-th MO for spin BETA).
Taking this into account that
    PSIA[i] = sum{k=1,NCNTRT} CALPHA[k,i]*PHI[k]
    PSIB[j] = sum{k'=1,NCNTRT} CBETA[k',j]*PHI[k']
where NCNTRT is the number of basis functions (contractions), CALPHA[k,i]
is the MO coefficient in the i-th ALPHA MO for k-th basis function,
CBETA[k',j] is the MO coefficient in the j-th BETA MO for k'-th basis function,
and PHI[k] is the k-th basis function; one gets:

SAB[i,j] =  sum{k=1,NCNTRT} sum{k'=1,NCNTRT} CALPHA[k,i]*CBETA[k',j]*S[k,k']

and hence:

   S2EXPT = S2EXCT + NBETA - 
      sum{i=1,NLA} sum{j=1,NLB} sum{k=1,NCNTRT} sum{k'=1,NCNTRT}
      DOCA[i] * CALPHA[k,i] * DOCB[j]  * CBETA[k',j] * S[k,k']
where S[k,k'] is the oridinary overlap integral between k-th and k'-th basis
function: S[k,k'] = <PHI[k]|PHI[k']>.

Now, is this formula correct? Or I messed it up...

Yes, I understand that fractional occupation numbers are suspect,
and I really should not have them when my SCF converges.
However, I need to calculate SOMETHING for the case when I do level smearing.
On the other hand, I am not that sure if the formula is even correct for
the intergal occupation numbers.

Can you help?
