Description
The generalization of Density Matrix Renormalization Group (DMRG) approach as implemented in quantum chemistry, to the case of non-orthogonal orbitals is carefully analyzed. This generalization is attractive from the physical point of view since it allows a better localization of the orbitals. The possible implementation difficulties and drawbacks are estimated. General formulae for hamiltonian matrix elements useful in DMRG calculations are given.
