The quality of the approximate eigenvalues can be improved by adding a free parameter in the characteristic global quantum number of the solutions. A method is proposed to determine the value of this parameter by comparing the eigenvalues computed with the envelope theory to the corresponding ones computed with a $N$-body generalization of the dominantly orbital state method. The accuracy of the procedure is tested with several systems.", "revisions": [ { "version": "v1", "updated": "2015-04-16T09:01:35.000Z" } ], "analyses": { "keywords": [ "dominantly orbital state method", "envelope theory", "characteristic global quantum number", "improvement", "auxiliary field method" ], "publication": { "doi": "10.1140/epjp/i2015-15156-7", "journal": "European Physical Journal Plus", "year": 2015, "month": "Jul", "volume": 130, "pages": 156 }, "note": { "typesetting": "TeX", "pages": 0, "language": "en", "license": "arXiv", "status": "editable", "adsabs": "2015EPJP..130..156S", "inspire": 1363689 } } }
