By a quantization-axis transformation, we derive an extended equation which Green's function satisfies in the presence of spin-flip scattering, and then apply the Kubo formula to study the variation of the giant magnetoresistance (GMR) in magnetic multilayered structures with the angle θ between the magnetizations of succesive magnetic films. It is found that in the presence of spin-flip scattering and spin-dependent potential barriers, the linear dependence of GMR on sin 2(θ/2) can be approximately obtained, which is qualitatively consistent with the experimental result.

<div>Many multiconfigurational systems, such as single-molecule magnets, are difficult to study using traditional computational methods due to the simultaneous existence of both spin and spatial degeneracies. In this work, a new approach termed n-spin-flip Ionization Potential/Electron Affinity (<i>n</i>SF-IP or <i>n</i>SF-EA) is introduced which combines the spin-flip method of Anna Krylov with particle-number changing IP/EA methods. We demonstrate the efficacy of the approach by applying it to the strongly-correlated N<sub>2</sub><sup>+</sup> as well as several double exchange systems. We also demonstrate that when these systems are well-described by a double exchange model Hamiltonian, only 1SF-IP/EA is required to extract the double exchange parameters and accurately predict energies for the low-spin states. This significantly reduces the computational effort for studying such systems. The effects of including additional excitations (using a RAS-<i>n</i>SF-IP/EA scheme) are also examined, with particular emphasis on hole and particle excitations.</div>
