Dear Hanning Chen,<br>
<br>
the implementation of low-spin ROKS with diagonalization (ROKS_SCHEME<br>
general) is still experimental and largely incomplete. For instance,<br>
the proper summation over the microstates contributing to a multiplet<br>
is missing. By contrast, the high-spin ROKS with diagonalization<br>
should work which is the default. This is why the result of your ROKS<br>
run did not differ from the RKS result. Alternatively, you may check<br>
the LOW_SPIN_ROKS available with OT.<br>
<br>
