Starting from previous work, where Rayleigh-Schrodinger perturbation t
heory has been reformulated in matrix form, a practical algorithm impl
ementation is described using both full matrix and vector alternatives
. An heuristic convergence sufficiency criterion based on Gershgorin d
iscs is also presented. Some numerical examples related to atomic CI c
omputations are reported to illustrate the theoretical framework.
