Roby-Gould bond indices as a tool for understanding chemical bonding from a mathematical and quantum mechanical perspective

In this paper we elaborate and evaluate the Roby-Gould bond index method (RGBI) for classifying and interpreting the nature of chemical bonds [Gould et al., Theor. Chem. Acc., 2008, 119, 275]. We emphasize that the RGBI method defines atoms as subspaces of a Hilbert space, represented as projection...
