<div> <div>A shortcoming of presently available fragment-based methods is that electron correlation (if included) is described at the level of individual electrons, resulting in many redundant evaluations of the electronic relaxations associated with any given fluctuation. A generalized variant of coupled-cluster (CC) theory is described, wherein the degrees of freedom are fluctuations of fragments between internally correlated states. The effects of intra-fragment correlation on the inter-fragment interaction is pre-computed and permanently folded into the effective Hamiltonian. This article provides a high-level description of the CC variant, establishing some useful notation, and it demonstrates the advantage of the proposed paradigm numerically on model systems. A companion article shows that the electronic Hamiltonian of real systems may always be cast in the form demanded. This framework opens a promising path to build finely tunable systematically improvable methods to capture precise properties of systems interacting with a large number of other systems. </div> </div>

<div><div><div><p>We present the derivation and implementation of complex, frequency-dependent polarizabilities for excited states using the algebraic-diagrammatic construction for the polarization propagator (ADC) and its intermediate state representation (ISR). Based on the complex polarizability we evaluate C<sub>6</sub> dispersion coefficients for excited states. The methodology is implemented up to third order in perturbation theory in the Python-driven adcc toolkit for the development and application of ADC methods. We exemplify the approach using small model systems and compare it to results from coupled-cluster theory and from experiments.</p></div></div></div>
