A practical polarization propagator method devised for the treatment of valence electron excitations in atoms and molecules is presented. This method, referred to as (second-order) algebraic-diagrammatic construction (ADC(2)), allows a theoretical description single double consistently through second first order, respectively, perturbation theory.

Propagator methods provide a direct approach to energies and transition moments for (generalized) electronic excitations from the ground state, but they do not usually allow one determine excited state wave functions properties. Using specific intermediate representation (ISR) concept, we here show how this restriction can be overcome in case of algebraic-diagrammatic construction (ADC) propagator approach. In ISR reformulation theory basic ADC secular matrix is written as Hamiltonian (or...
