RESUMO

The ongoing evolution of computers has led to several changes in the way of doing science, to create a multitude of new options for solving scientific problems. The implementation of computational methods allowed the theoretical treatment of large systems, complex and different areas of science. One area of particular focus and chemistry of molecules, now can describe relatively complex molecular systems with extreme precision. The theoretical methods in molecular chemistry can be basically divided into classical and quantum methods, depending on what we consider, we can also use sequential or hybrid methods, however for a detailed description of the electronic structure and chemical bonds is required the use of quantum methods. Ab initio calculations of the electronic structure of atoms and molecules have been specially made for the first time using the method of Roothaan expansion in the decade of the fifties . In 1986, a full version of the equations of Griffin-Wheeler-Hartree-Fock (HF-GW) was presented in the literature , inspired by the Method of Coordinate Generator (MCG), introduced by Griffin and Wheeler in the decade of fifty . The full equations of the Hartree-Fock method was called the Generator Coordinate Hartree-Fock (HF-MCG) and its first applications was the generation of atomic universal bases In fact, a careful numerical integration of equations of GW-HF allows the generation of universal bases and more widespread than those already published in the literature .Recently, Barbosa and Silva proposed a modification in the methodology of the discretization to improve the collection of sets of Gaussian functions (GTF) by means of MCG-HF, making possible the generation of GTF as good or better as the so far obtained in the literature, but more compact and precise (accurate). A polynomial expansion is proposed as a new way to discretize the Griffin-Wheeler-Hartree-Fock equations of the Generator Coordinate Hartree-Fock method. The implementation of the polynomial expansion in the Generator Coordinate Hartree-Fock method discretizes the Griffin-Wheeler-Hartree-Fock equations through a numerical mesh, which is not equally spaced. This procedure makes the optimization of Gaussian exponents in the Generator Coordinate Hartree-Fock method more flexible and more efficient. The results obtained with the polynomial expansion for atomic Hartree-Fock energies show this technique is very powerful when employed in the design of compact and high accurate Gaussian basis sets used in ab initio non-relativistic (Hartree-Fock) and relativistic (Dirac-Fock) calculations.
