Notes:
An efficient algorithm for solving eigenvalue problems of type HC = SCe or FC = SCe is described. This algorithm is generally faster than conventional algorithms. That is to say, this algorithm is more than 1.8 times faster than Gram-Schmidt orthogonalization and about 8 times faster than Löwdin's S-1/2 method. This algorithm is beneficial for large molecules and molecules having a high degree of symmetry. In addition, this algorithm is more compact than conventional algorithms.
