In single-reference coupled-cluster (CC) methods, one has to solve a set of non-linear polynomial equations in order to determine the so-called amplitudes which are then used to compute the energy and other properties. Although it is of…
We present an extension of the pair coupled cluster doubles (p-CCD) method to quasiparticles and apply it to the attractive pairing Hamiltonian. Near the transition point where number symmetry gets spontaneously broken, the proposed…
There have been assertions in the literature that the variational and unitary forms of coupled cluster theory lead to the same energy functional. Numerical evidence from previous authors was inconsistent with this claim, yet the small…

While limited coupled cluster theory is \textit{formally} nonvariational, it is not broadly appreciated whether this is a major issue \textit{in practice}. We carried out a detailed comparison with \textit{de facto} full CI energies for a…
A coupled-cluster approach for systems of $N$ bosons in external traps is developed. In the coupled-cluster approach the exact many-body wavefunction is obtained by applying an exponential operator $\exp{T}$ to the ground configuration…
We propose a scheme to perform the variational principle directly on the coherent pair condensate (VDPC). The result is equivalent to that of the so-called variation after particle-number projection, but now the particle number is always…

We extend the variational cluster approach to deal with strongly correlated lattice bosons in the superfluid phase. To this end, we reformulate the approach within a pseudoparticle formalism, whereby cluster excitations are described by…
A general quantum many-body theory in configuration space is developed by extending the traditional coupled cluter method (CCM) to a variational formalism. Two independent sets of distribution functions are introduced to evaluate the…
A variant of coupled-cluster theory is described here, wherein the degrees of freedom are fluctuations of fragments between internally correlated states. The effects of intra-fragment correlation on the inter-fragment interaction are…
We study the application of various forms of the coupled cluster method to systems with paired fermions. The novel element of the analysis is the study of the breaking and eventual restoration of particle number in the CCM variants. We…
The study of ground-state properties of the Fermi-Hubbard model is a long-lasting task in the research of strongly correlated systems. Owing to the exponentially growing complexity of the system, a quantitative analysis usually demands high…
These lectures give an introduction to the methods of conformal field theory as applied to deriving certain results in two-dimensional critical percolation: namely the probability that there exists at least one cluster connecting two…
