    Of course, the trick to methods that divide up a large                      
problem into small ones is to control the errors that                           
result.  A simple way to set up a DC-MP2 calculation is                         
with atomic partitions:                                                         
 $contrl scftyp=rhf mplevl=2 runtyp=energy $end                                 
 $system mwords=25 $end                                                         
 $scf    dirscf=.true. $end                                                     
 $dandc  dcflg=.true. subtyp=atom bufrad=8.0 $end                               
 $dccorr dodccr=.true. rbufcr=5.0 $end                                          
 $guess  guess=hucsub $end  (if DC-SCF is used)                                 
This leads to as many subsystems as there are atoms, with                       
the buffer region around the central atom being defined by                      
a radius.  This input recognizes that exchange effects in                       
Hartree-Fock are longer range than correlation, and thus                        
uses dual level radii.  It may be reasonable to simply do a                     
conventional and thus fully accurate SCF computation by                         
DCFLG=.FALSE., obtaining only the MP2 correlation energy by                     
the divide and conquer method.  Faster run times may result                     
from other partitionings, such as manually dividing a                           
protein into subsystems containing a single amino acid.                         
                                                                                
                                                                                
DCFLG =        flag to activate DC-SCF calculation.                             
               (default=.FALSE.)                                                
                                                                                
  Note:  If you want to treat only the correlated MP2/CC                        
         procedure in the DC manner, after a standard HF                        
         calculation, this option may be set to .FALSE.

       = AUTO   constructs subsystems automatically by                          
                dividing total system by cubic grid.                            
                Grid size can be set by SUBLNG.

         The style is the same as INDAT keyword in $FMO.                        
         Two styles are supported (the choice is made based                     
         on LBSUBS(1): if it is nonzero, choice (a) is                          
         taken, otherwise LBSUBS(1) is ignored and choice                       
         (b) is taken):                                                         
         a) LBSUBS(i)=m assigns atom i is to subsystem m.                       
            LBSUBS(i) must be given for each atom.                              
         b) the style is                                                        
            a1 a2 ... ak 0

            Elements a1...ak are assigned to subsystem 1,                       
            then b1...bm are assigned to subsystem 2,etc.                       
            An element is one of the following:                                 
                I    or   I -J                                                  
            where I means atom I, and a pair I,-J means                         
            the range of atoms I-J.  There must be no space                     
            after the "-"!                                                      
         Example:                                                               
         LBSUBS(1)=1,1,1,2,2,1 is equivalent to

         Both assign atoms 1,2,3 and 6 to subsystem 1,                          
         and 4,5 to subsystem 2.

BUFTYP = chooses a method to construct buffer region.                           
       = RADIUS selects atoms included in spheres centered                      
                at atoms in the central region (default).                       
                The radius is given by BUFRAD keyword for                       
                DC-SCF and by the RBUFCR keyword in $DCCORR                     
                for DC-MP2/CC.

                This selection can avoid cutting bonds

BUFRAD = buffer radius in DC-SCF calculation. This value                        
         should be in the units given by UNITS keyword in

         used in DC-SCF procedure in a.u. (default=200.0)                       
         Reducing this value may improve SCF convergence                        
         but may obtain worse total energy.                                     
                                                                                
MXITDC = maximum number of iteration cycles for determining

FTOL   =   Fermi function cutoff factor (default=15.0).                         
       = p The value of Fermi function less than 10**(-p)                       
           is considered as 0. The value greater than

In the DC-SCF procedure, the available SCF acceleration                         
techniques are DIIS, DAMP, EXTRAP as well as DC-DIIS and                        
VFON which are specific to the DC-SCF.  In DC-SCF                               
calculation, only DIIS is used by default.  DC-DIIS                             
(DIIDCF=.TRUE.) is not normally needed for convergence.
