This submatrix is used to accelerate convergence of the CI iterations in the OLSEN and MITRUSHENKOV iteration schemes, and also to find a good starting guess for the SEM method if GUESS_VECTOR is H0_BLOCK. Defaults to 400. Note that the program may change the given size for Ms=0 cases (MS0 is TRUE) if it determines that the H0 block includes only one member of a pair of determinants related by time reversal symmetry. For very small block sizes, this could conceivably eliminate the entire H0 block; the program should print warnings if this occurs.

ORB_ENER employs the sum of orbital energy approximation giving spin pure expansion vectors but usually doubles the number of Davidson iterations. EVANGELISTI uses the sums and differences of orbital energies with the SCF reference energy to produce spin pure expansion vectors. LEININGER approximation which subtracts the one-electron contribution from the orbital energies, multiplies by 0.5, and adds the one-electron contribution back in, producing spin pure expansion vectors and developed by Matt Leininger and works as well as EVANGELISTI.
