Canonical expansion of a paired-permanent is deduced. Furthermore, it is shown that a paired-permanent may be expressed in terms of the products of sub-paired-permanents of any given order and their corresponding minors. An ab initio spin-free valence bond program, called Xiamen, is implemented by using paired-permanent approach. Test calculation shows that Xiamen package is more efficient than some other programs based on the traditional VB algorithm, and it provides a new practical tool for quantum chemistry.展开更多
