We use a solvable model to perform modified dyson mapping and reveal the unphysical-state effects in the original Random Phase Approximation (RPA). We then propose a method to introduce the RPA and improve it based on a Boson mapping.
In this paper, we develop a consistent extension of RPA for bosonic systems. In order to illustrate the method, we consider the case of the anharmonic oscillator. We compare our results with those obtained in mean-field and standard RPA…

We apply the random phase approximation (RPA) and its extension called renormalized RPA to the quantum anharmonic oscillator with an O(2) symmetry. We first obtain the equation for the RPA frequencies in the standard and in the renormalized…
