Pros and cons of time-dependent renormalized-natural-orbital theory — •Martins Brics, Julius Rapp, and Dieter Bauer — Institut für Physik, Universität Rostock, 18051 Rostock, Germany

Recently introduced time-dependent renormalized-natural-orbital theory (TDRNOT) is a promising approach to describe correlated electron quantum dynamics, even beyond linear response. It has been shown [1-4] that TDRNOT is capable of describing correlated phenomena such as doubly excited states, autoionization, and Fano profiles in absorption and photoelectron spectra, nonsequential double ionization, single photon double ionization, high-harmonic generation and Rabi oscillations.

In this work, we compare how TDRNOT performs against standard methods such us multiconfiguration time-dependent Hartree-Fock (MCTDHF). The main focus is the truncation error, which is a consequence of the fact that numerical calculations necessarily require a truncation of the number of natural orbitals/configurations.
