A proposed family of variationally correlated first-order density matrices for spin-polarized three-electron model atoms
In early work of March and Young (1959), it was pointed out for spin-free fermions that a firstorder density matrix (1DM) for N−1 particles could be constructed from a 2DM (Γ) for N fermions divided by the diagonal of the 1DM, the density n(r1), as 2Γ(r1, r ′ 2; r1, r2)/n(r1) for any arbitrary fixed r1. Here, we thereby set up a family of variationally valid 1DMS constructed via the above propo...
متن کاملUniversal variational functionals of electron densities, first-order density matrices, and natural spin-orbitals and solution of the v-representability problem.
Universal variational functionals of densities, first-order density matrices, and natural spin-orbitals are explicitly displayed for variational calculations of ground states of interacting electrons in atoms, molecules, and solids. In all cases, the functionals search for constrained minima. In particular, following Percus [Formula: see text] is identified as the universal functional of Hohenb...
متن کاملThe electron density function of the Hückel (tight-binding) model
The Hückel (tight-binding) molecular orbital (HMO) method has found many applications in the chemistry of alternant conjugated molecules, such as polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons (PAHs), fullerenes and graphene-like molecules, as well as in solid-state physics. In this paper, we found analytical expressions for the electron density matrix of the HMO method in terms of odd-powers of its Hamilton...
متن کاملGround-state properties of the periodic Anderson model.
The ground state energy, hybridization matrix element, local moment and spin density correlations of a one dimensional, finite chain periodic symmetric Anderson model are obtained using numerical simulations and compared with perturbation theory and strong coupling results. We find that the local f-electron spins are compensated by correlation with other f-electrons as well as band electrons le...
متن کاملApplications of the density matrix renormalisation group to problems in magnetism
The application of real space renormalisation group methods to quantum lattice models has become a topic of great interest following the development of the Density Matrix Renormalisation Group (DMRG) by White. This method has been used to find the ground and low-lying excited state energies and wave functions of quantum spin models in which the form of the ground state is not clear, for instanc...
