Week 46: Many-body perturbation theory and start Coupled Cluster theory

 

 

 

Week 46, November 11-15, 2024

  1. Thursday:
    1. Discussion of second midterm
    2. Linked and unlinked diagrams
    3. Linked diagram theorem and diagram rules
    4. Video of lecture at https://youtu.be/Qw-5Ar8BVUY
    5. Whiteboard notes at https://github.com/ManyBodyPhysics/FYS4480/blob/master/doc/HandwrittenNotes/2024/NotesNovember14.pdf
  2. Friday:
    1. Linked diagram theorem and diagram rules
    2. Start Coupled Cluster theory
    3. Video of lecture at https://youtu.be/-2opFiQcZDk
    4. Whiteboard notes at https://github.com/ManyBodyPhysics/FYS4480/blob/master/doc/HandwrittenNotes/2024/NotesNovember15.pdf
  3. Relevant reading for the lectures: Shavitt abd Bartlett chapters 6 and 7 on linked and unlinked diagrams. For coupled cluster theory chapter 9 is the most relevant one. The lectures follow to a large extent the material covered in these chapters.
