  1. Each row corresponds to a Davidson iteration. The third and fourth columns track the changes in the computed Rayleigh-Ritz eigenpair across iterations, and the fifth column tracks the residual norm, r = HC − EC, where H is the Hamiltonian, C is the CI vector, σ is their product, and E is the corresponding energy. The preconditioning dropping threshold was taken to be ε = 1.0 × 10−6. The inactive energy is -11826.102719 a.u.
