The technique of inner projection is used for the first time in a chemical context, namely for the study of the ground state energy of the Pariser-Parr-Pople model of the benzene molecule. The lower bound for the energy is calculated for three types of parametrization. These results are compared with the “exact” energies which are obtained from full configuration interaction. It is shown that the inner projection technique provides very good lower bounds for the energy. In addition, we compare these inner projection results with those obtained by other approximative techniques, namely with the results of the Coupled Pair Many Electron Theory. A discussion of the application of the method of intermediate hamiltonians and the inner projection technique is also included.

A three-parameter variational trial function is used to determine an upper bound to the ground-state energy of the spiked harmonic-oscillator Hamiltonian [Formula: see text]. The entire parameter range λ > 0 and α ≥ 1 is treated in a single elementary formulation. The method of potential envelopes is also employed to derive a complementary energy lower bound formula valid for all the discrete eigenvalues.

Abstract In this note, the authors’ recently developed non-perturbative open-shell theory is adapted for direct calculation o f ionisation potential and excitation energy of m any-electron systems. The H -F ground state is used as the “vacuum ” or “ core” in order to achieve a transparent separation o f the ground state energy. An application to a simple 4 π-electron system is discussed as an illustration o f the workability of the theory.

Given a bounded open set in (or in a Riemannian manifold), and a partition of Ω by k open sets ω j , we consider the quantity , where λ ( ω j ) is the ground state energy of the Dirichlet realization of the Laplacian in ω j . We denote by ℒ k ( Ω ) the infimum of over all k -partitions. A minimal k -partition is a partition that realizes the infimum. Although the analysis of minimal k -partitions is rather standard when k =2 (we find the nodal domains of a second eigenfunction), the analysis for higher values of k becomes non-trivial and quite interesting. Minimal partitions are in particular spectral equipartitions, i.e. the ground state energies λ ( ω j ) are all equal. The purpose of this paper is to revisit various properties of nodal sets, and to explore if they are also true for minimal partitions, or more generally for spectral equipartitions. We prove a lower bound for the length of the boundary set of a partition in the two-dimensional situation. We consider estimates involving the cardinality of the partition.

Abstract Non-relativistic Helium-like ions (−e, −e, Ze) with static nucleus in a d−dimensional space (d > 1) are considered. Assuming r−1Coulomb interactions, a 2-parametric correlated Hylleraas-type trial function is used to calculate the ground state energy of the system in the domain Z ≤ 10. For odd d = 3, 5, the variational energy is given by a rational algebraic function of the variational parameters whilst for even d = 2, 4 it is shown for the first time that it corresponds to a more complicated non-algebraic expression. This twofold analyticity will hold for any d. It allows us to construct reasonably accurate approximate solutions for the ground state energy E0(Z, d) in the form of compact analytical expressions. We call them generalized Majorana solutions. They reproduce the first leading terms in the celebrated 1Z expansion, and serve as generating functions for certain correlation-dependent properties. The (first) critical charge Zc vs d and the Shannon entropy S(d)r vs Z are also calculated within the present variational approach. In the light of these results, for the physically important case d = 3 a more general 3-parametric correlated Hylleraas-type trial is used to compute the finite mass effects in the Majorana solution for a three-body Coulomb system with arbitrary charges and masses. It admits a straightforward generalization to any d as well. Concrete results for the systems e− e− e+, H+2 and H− are indicated explicitly. Our variational analytical results are in excellent agreement with the exact numerical values reported in the literature.

The coupled cluster method (CCM) is applied to the spin-half XXZ model on the honeycomb lattice. Hierarchical CCM approximation schemes are applied in order to obtain the ground-state properties. The possible critical behavior of this model is also examined. Reasonably good results for the ground-state energy and the staggered magnetization are obtained, in comparison to the results from Monte Carlo simulations, spin-wave techniques, series expansions, and finite lattice diagonalizations, that have already been performed on this model.
