Role of small-norm components in extended random-phase approximation

Abstract

The role of the small-norm amplitudes in extended RPA theories such as the particle-particle and hole-hole components of one-body amplitudes and the two-body amplitudes other than two particle - two holes components are investigated for the one-dimensional Hubbard model using an extended RPA derived from the time-dependent density-matrix theory. It is found that these amplitudes cannot be neglected in strongly interacting regions where the effects of ground-state correlations are significant.
