Configuration Expansion by Means of Pseudonatural Orbitals

The configuration interaction (CI) method as a general approach to solving the many-electron Schrodinger equation to—in principle—any desired accuracy, has been described in this volume by Shavitt. We refer to that chapter for all basic concepts of the CI method and an outline of its merits and its computational problems.
