MiS Preprint Repository

We have decided to discontinue the publication of preprints on our preprint server as of 1 March 2024. The publication culture within mathematics has changed so much due to the rise of repositories such as ArXiV (www.arxiv.org) that we are encouraging all institute members to make their preprints available there. An institute's repository in its previous form is, therefore, unnecessary. The preprints published to date will remain available here, but we will not add any new preprints here.

Minimax approximation for the decomposition of energy denominators in Laplace-transformed Møller-Plesset perturbation theories

Abstract

We implement the minimax approximation for the decomposition of energy denominators in Laplace transformed M{\o}ller-Plesset perturbation theories. The best approximation is defined by minimising the Chebyshev norm of the quadrature error. The application to the Laplace-transformed second order perturbation theory clearly shows that the present method is much more accurate than other numerical quadratures. It is also shown that the error in the energy decays almost exponentially with respect to the number of quadrature points.
