Fragmentation and embedding schemes are of great importance when applying quantum-chemical calculations to more complex and attractive targets. The divide-and-conquer (DC)-based quantum-chemical model is a fragmentation scheme that can be connected to embedding schemes. This feature article explains several DC-based schemes developed by the authors over the last two decades, which was inspired by the pioneering study of DC self-consistent field (SCF) method by Yang and Lee (J. Chem. Phys.1995,103, 5674–5678). First, the theoretical aspects of the DC-based SCF, electron correlation, excited-state, and nuclear orbital methods are described, followed by the two-component relativistic theory, quantum-mechanical molecular dynamics simulation, and the introduction of three programs, including DC-based schemes. Illustrative applications confirmed the accuracy and feasibility of the DC-based schemes.
