Callback Function Scheme

To use OpenRSP, users should also prepare different callback functions needed by OpenRSP. These callback functions will be invoked by OpenRSP during calculations to get integral matrices or expectation values of different one- and two-electron operators, exchange-correlation functionals and nuclear contributions, or to solve the linear response equation. The callback functions are slightly different for C and Fortran users, which will be described separately in this chapter.

It should be noted that the arguments in the following callback functions are over complete. For instance, from the knowledge of perturbations (oper_num_pert, oper_pert_labels and oper_pert_orders), the dimension of integral matrices num_int in the callback function get_one_oper_mat() can be computed.

Last but not least, users should be aware that:

  1. OpenRSP always ask for complex expectation values for different one- and two-electron operators, exchange-correlation functionals and nuclear contributions, and these values are presented in memory that the real and imaginary parts of each value are consecutive. This affects:
    1. get_overlap_exp()
    2. get_one_oper_exp()
    3. get_two_oper_exp()
    4. get_xc_fun_exp()
    5. get_zero_oper_contrib()
  2. In order to reduce the use of temporary matrices and values, OpenRSP requires that calculated integral matrices and expectation values should be added to the returned argument. OpenRSP will zero the entries of these matrices and expectation values at first. This requirement affects the callback functions of one- and two-electron operators, exchange-correlation functionals and nuclear contributions:
    1. get_overlap_mat() and get_overlap_exp()
    2. get_one_oper_mat() and get_one_oper_exp()
    3. get_two_oper_mat() and get_two_oper_exp()
    4. get_xc_fun_mat() and get_xc_fun_exp()
    5. get_zero_oper_contrib()

OpenRSP Callback Functions (C version)

Examples of C callback functions can be found in these files tests/OpenRSP*Callback.c. The detailed information of these callback functions are given as follows.

void get_pert_concatenation(pert_label, first_cat_comp, num_cat_comps, num_sub_tuples, len_sub_tuples, user_ctx, rank_sub_comps)

User specified function for getting the ranks of components of sub-perturbation tuples (with the same perturbation label) for given components of the corresponding concatenated perturbation tuple, the last argument for the function OpenRSPSetPerturbations().

Parameters:

  • first_cat_comp (const QInt) – rank of the first component of the concatenated perturbation tuple
  • num_cat_comps (const QInt) – number of components of the concatenated perturbation tuple
  • num_sub_tuples (const QInt) – number of sub-perturbation tuples to construct the concatenated perturbation tuple
  • len_sub_tuples (const QInt*) – length of each sub-perturbation tuple, size is num_sub_tuples; so that the length of the concatenated perturbation is sum(len_sub_tuples)
  • user_ctx (void*) – user-defined callback function context
Var rank_sub_comps:
 

ranks of components of sub-perturbation tuples for the corresponding component of the concatenated perturbation tuple, i.e. num_cat_comps components starting from the one with rank first_cat_comp, size is therefore num_sub_tuples \(\times\) num_cat_comps, and arranged as [num_cat_comps][num_sub_tuples]

NOTE: get_pert_concatenation() will not be invoked in the current release so that users can use a “faked” function for it.

[1]Here perturbations on the overlap operator represent those acting on the whole integral of the overlap operator, i.e. they can act on either the bra center or the ket center by applying the rule of derivatives of a product.

It means that, OpenRSP will only ask for overlap integrals either with perturbations on the bra and/or ket (oper_num_pert=0), or with perturbations on the whole overlap integral (bra_num_pert=0 and ket_num_pert=0).

OpenRSP Callback Subroutines (Fortran version)

The callback subroutines of Fortran codes take almost the exact arguments as the callback functions of C codes. One difference is the type convention between C and Fortran, which has been discussed in Secion Functions of OpenRSP API (Fortran version). Moreover, the pointers of basic types (integer and real numbers) in the C codes should be converted to corresponding array in Fortran. The array of QcMat pointers should be converted to an array of type(QcMat) in Fortran. Last, the user-defined callback function/subroutine context should be replaced by type(C_PTR).

We will develop Fortran unit testing in next release. For the time being, interested users can refer to LSDalton for examples of Fortran callback subroutines.
