56. In order to delete specific basis functions in the molecular Orbitals, their one-electron integrals are set to very high positive values (e.g. 5000 au) and zeros are assigned to their overlap integrals with all other basis functions. Consequently, the molecular orbital coefficients of these functions in the occupied molecular orbitals become negligible and they do not contribute to the molecular energy.
