TLDR
In this article, a general expression for polarisability calculation has been derived from the equation of motion method and different approximation methods can be deduced for different choices of ground state and excitation manifold.
Abstract
In the light of the equation of motion method a general expression for polarisability calculation has been derived. From this general expression, different approximation methods can be deduced for different choices of ground state and excitation manifold. Among these the coupled Hartree-Fock theory is the most extensively used one for polarisability calculations. It has also been shown that this theory has a simple relationship with random phase approximation.

Semi-empirical calculation of static molecular polarizability using CHFT: some benzene derivatives and aromatic heterocycles

TL;DR: The static polarizability of fifteen organic molecules (point group symmetry:C2v; number of electrons ≥ 26) have been theoretically calculated using the CNDO/S-CHFT scheme and the results have been compared with other available data.

A variational solution of the time-dependent Schrodinger equation

TL;DR: In this paper, a variational method is described for finding approximate solutions of the time-dependent Schrodinger equation, which is closely related to Frenkel's, but better in some respects because it always leads to a true minimum of the error.

Aspects of Time-Dependent Perturbation Theory

TL;DR: In this paper, it is shown that an appropriate over-all multiplicative, time-dependent normalization and phase factor can be obtained, and that it is simply the amplitude for finding the system in the unperturbed eigenstate at any time $t$.

A response-function approach to the direct calculation of the transition-energy in a multiple-cluster expansion formalism

TL;DR: In this paper, a response function approach to the direct determination of transition energy in a multiple-cluster expansion formalism has been developed, in a way reminiscent of the Fourier-transformed version of a response-function theory.
