Abstract
The paper provide a brief overview of electronic structure theory and details the implementation of quantum chemistry methods on a graphical processing unit. The paper also analyze algorithm performance in terms of floating-point operations and memory bandwidth, and assess the adequacy of single-precision accuracy for quantum chemistry applications.
