A procedure is presented for accelerating the convergence of the polynomial-expanded spectral density method for calculating eigenvalues and eigenvectors of a Hamiltonian. After a relatively small number of terms in the expansion, one calculates the scalar spectral function, whose plot gives informa

โฆ Synopsis
the spectral density operator (SDO), the projection operator that projects out of any Lz wavepacket the eigenstate( s) of H having energy E. If applied to an Lz wavepacket which overlaps the interaction, it yields either scattering-type (improper) eigenstates or proper bound eigenstates. For negative energies, the exact SD0 yields zero away from an eigenvalue, and yields the energy eigenstate (times a constant) when E equals an eigenvalue. The finite orthogonal polynomial expansion of the SDO, acting on an L* wavepacket, yields approximately zero for E not equal to an eigenvalue, and becomes nonzero in the neighborhood of an eigenvalue.
