Abstract
- This paper presents a general second-quantized form of a permutation operator interchanging n pairs of electrons between interacting subsystems in the framework of the symmetry-adapted perturbation theory (SAPT). We detail the procedure for constructing this operator through the consecutive multiplication of single-pair permutation operators. This generalized form of the permutation operator has enabled the derivation of universal formulas for S2n approximations of the exchange energies in the first and second order of the interaction operator. We present expressions for corrections of S4 approximations and assess its efficacy on a selection of systems anticipated to exhibit a slowly converging overlap expansion. Additionally, we outline a method to sum the overlap expansion series to infinity in second-quantization, up to the second order in V. This new approach offers an alternative to the existing formalism based on density-matrix formulations. When combined with a symbolic algebra program for automated derivations, it paves the way for advancements in SAPT theory, particularly for intricate wavefunction theories. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]
