Abstract
A new method for choosing the rotation angle in the usual indirect localization procedure consisting of the iterative use of 2 × 2 rotation matrices is suggested. Calculations reported here obtaining the localized orbitals of the water molecule show this new method to converge much more quickly and to a significantly better numerical value of the localization criterion than previous methods.
