Dylan Counsell

PhD student in theoretical chemistry at the University of Cambridge. I work on stochastic and nonorthogonal quantum chemistry, with an interest in high-performance scientific computing.

Research

Stochastic nonorthogonal electronic structure

PhD research

Stochastic approaches to correlation in nonorthogonal determinant spaces, including NOCI-QMC and NOCCMC (in development).

Perturbative nonorthogonal configuration interaction

PhD research

Fast NOCI-PT2 for large systems with the extended nonorthogonal Wick's theorem.

Finite-size errors in stochastic determinant-based methods

MPhil research

Finite-size error correction for determinant-based stochastic electronic-structure methods in periodic systems, including FCIQMC and CCMC.

Software

noci-rs

GitHub

A high-performance Rust package for nonorthogonal electronic-structure calculations. Available methods include NOCI, NOCI-PT2 and NOCI-QMC.
