Abstract
A new approach that allows for the calculation of interaction-induced properties exclusively from the properties of monomers is presented. The method is derived in the spirit of the symmetry-adapted perturbation theory (SAPT). The interaction-induced property is presented in the first order of the molecular interaction operator, including the exchange effects. Test calculations of the interaction induced dipole moment were carried out for a number of small nonpolar and polar atomic and molecular dimers. The numerical results show that the analytical first-order corrections proposed in this paper reproduce the finite-field treatment of the first-order corrections of SAPT. Compared to supermolecular approaches, the performance of the finite-field SAPT (up to the second order) constitutes an insightful alternative for calculations of interaction-induced properties.

Molecular geometries
Description
The `.zip` archive contains directories for each of the molecular systems studied. The directory for a given system contains `.xyz` files with the molecular geometries studied, with the filename indicating the intermolecular separation (in bohr) and, in the case of He...H2 complex, also the angle parameter (in degrees).
