Exact Solution of Correlated Electron Systems

Exact solution of the Zeeman effect in single-electron systems

Contrary to popular belief, the Zeeman effect can be treated exactly in single-electron systems, for arbitrary magnetic field strengths, as long as the term quadratic in the magnetic field can be ignored. These formulas were actually derived already around 1927 by Darwin, using the classical picture of angular momentum, and presented in their proper quantum-mechanical form in 1933 by Bethe, alt...

Correlated electron-nuclear dynamics: exact factorization of the molecular wavefunction.

It was recently shown [A. Abedi, N. T. Maitra, and E. K. U. Gross, Phys. Rev. Lett. 105, 123002 (2010)] that the complete wavefunction for a system of electrons and nuclei evolving in a time-dependent external potential can be exactly factorized into an electronic wavefunction and a nuclear wavefunction. The concepts of an exact time-dependent potential energy surface (TDPES) and exact time-dep...
