Localization method for semiempirical molecular orbitals based on the boys-foster criterion

A localization method based on the Boys-Foster criterion is presented which allows the origin-choice dependence that may appear in Boys criterion to be overcome when semiempirical molecular orbitals are concerned. The method allows an optimum origin of the coordinates and a unique set of localized m...

Sumario:A localization method based on the Boys-Foster criterion is presented which allows the origin-choice dependence that may appear in Boys criterion to be overcome when semiempirical molecular orbitals are concerned. The method allows an optimum origin of the coordinates and a unique set of localized molecular orbitals to be obtained for a semiempirical wavefunction. A computational procedure for this method is suggested. © 1990.
