Abstract
We show that the Coulomb operator can be resolved as r12-1 = Σnlm φnlm(r1) φ nlm(r2) where φnlm(r) is proportional to the product of a spherical Bessel function and a spherical harmonic, provided that r1 + r2 < 2π. The resolution reduces Coulomb matrix elements to Cholesky-like sums of products of auxiliary integrals. We find that these sums converge rapidly for four prototypical electron densities. To demonstrate its viability in large-scale quantum chemical calculations, we also use a truncated resolution to calculate the Coulomb energy of the nanodiamond crystallite C84H64.
