contents The DMRG method, despite its favorable scaling, it is in practice not suitable for computations of dynamic correlation. Several approaches to include that in post-DMRG methods exist; in our group we focused on the tailored-CC (TCC) approach. This method works well in many situations, however, in exactly degenerate cases (with two or more determinants of equal weight), it exhibits a bias towards the reference determinant representing the Fermi vacuum. Although in some cases it is possible to use a compensation scheme to avoid this bias for energy differences, as we did in a previous work on the singlet-triplet gap in the tetramethylenethane (TME) molecule, it is certainly a drawback. In order to overcome the single-reference bias of the TCC method, we have developed a Hilbert-space multireference version of tailored CC, which can treat several determinants on an equal footing. We have employed a multireference analysis of the DMRG wave function in the matrix product state form to get the active amplitudes for each reference determinant and their constant contribution to the effective Hamiltonian. We have implemented and compared the performance of three Hilbert-space MRCC variants - the state universal one, and the Brillouin-Wigner and Mukherjee's state specific ones. We have assessed these approaches on the cyclobutadiene and tetramethylenethane (TME) molecules, which are both diradicals with exactly degenerate determinants at a certain geometry. Two DMRG active spaces have been selected based on orbital entropies, while the MRCC active space comprised the HOMO and LUMO orbitals needed for description of the diradical. We have also investigated the sensitivity of the results on orbital rotation of the HOMO-LUMO pair, as it is well known that Hilbert-space MRCC methods are not invariant to such transformations.
