β¦ Synopsis
It is demonstrated that an SU( 3) algebraic Hamiltonian for a vibrational system of three coupled anharmonic oscillators can be written down in the coset space representation. The algorithm devised is then employed to study the dynamics of stationary eigenstates and the non-stationary inter-oscillator energy transfer. For the non-stationary case the quantum beat phenomenon is reproduced. The dynamics is non-integrable and chaotic. This demonstrates the complexity of the SU( 3) multi-dimensional dynamics where the global instead of the local properties are crucial.

The coset space treatment of the molecular electronic dynamics is demonstrated in which Hiickel orbitals are merely special points in the complicated, multi-dimensional manifolds. The results for the propenyl and cyclo-propenyl systems with degenerate site energies show that for symmetric inter-site
