| Shrnutí: | We explore the framework of a real-time coupled cluster method with a focus on improving its computational efficiency. Propagation of the wave function via the time-dependent Schrödinger equation places high demands on computing resources, particularly for high level theories such as coupled cluster with polynomial scaling. Similar to earlier investigations of coupled cluster properties, we demonstrate that the use of single-precision arithmetic reduces both the storage and multiplicative costs of the real-time simulation by approximately a factor of 2 with no significant impact on the resulting UV/vis absorption spectrum computed via the Fourier transform of the time-dependent dipole moment. Additional speedups─of up to a factor of 14 in test simulations of water clusters─are obtained via a straightforward GPU-based implementation as compared to conventional CPU calculations. We also find that further performance optimization is accessible through sagacious selection of numerical integration algorithms, and the adaptive methods, such as the Cash-Karp integrator, provide an effective balance between computing costs and numerical stability. Finally, we demonstrate that a simple mixed-step integrator based on the conventional fourth-order Runge-Kutta approach is capable of stable propagations even for strong external fields, provided the time step is appropriately adapted to the duration of the laser pulse with only minimal computational overhead.We explore the framework of a real-time coupled cluster method with a focus on improving its computational efficiency.
