We focus in particular on two criteria, one based on the ground-state one-body density matrix of the system and the other based on the ground-state energy. The performance of these two criteria are then numerically tested and compared on a parametrized eigenvalue problem, which corresponds to a one-dimensional toy version of the ground-state dissociation of a diatomic molecule.","url_abs":"https://arxiv.org/abs/2207.12190v1","url_pdf":"https://arxiv.org/pdf/2207.12190v1.pdf","source":{"archive":"pwc-archive (Hugging Face), CC BY-SA 4.0","snapshot":"2025-07-28","licence_url":"https://creativecommons.org/licenses/by-sa/4.0/legalcode","row_kind":"links_only","authors_date_abstract":"arXiv metadata, CC0 1.0 (https://info.arxiv.org/help/license), from the Kaggle arXiv metadata snapshot of 2026-09-12"},"code_links":[{"paper_slug":"on-basis-set-optimisation-in-quantum","repo_url":"https://github.com/gkemlin/1d_basis_optimization","is_official":1,"mentioned_in_paper":1,"mentioned_in_github":0,"framework":"none","reach":null}],"tasks":[],"methods":[],"datasets_introduced":[],"methods_introduced":[],"results":[],"syntology":{"atlas_url":null,"mcp":null,"developers":"https://syntology.ai/developers"},"arxiv_metadata":null,"syntology_extracted_results":null}
