Abstract
We present an analytical proof and numerical demonstrations of the equivalence of the correlation energy from particle-particle random phase approximation (pp-RPA) and ladder-couple-cluster-doubles (ladder-CCD). These two theories reduce to the identical algebraic matrix equation and correlation energy expressions, under the assumption that the pp-RPA equation is stable. The numerical examples illustrate that the correlation energy missed by pp-RPA in comparison with couple-cluster single and double is largely canceled out when considering reaction energies. This theoretical connection will be beneficial to future pp-RPA studies based on the well established couple cluster theory.
