Abstract

A connected-moments expansion (CMX) is constructed for the overlap between the approximate and the exact (but unknown) wave function of the ground state. The CMX series provides approximations to the overlap that do not require the knowledge of the exact energy of either the ground or the first excited state. Moreover, the obtained approximate overlaps have a correct size extensivity. A numerical example is given, demonstrating the performance of the new method.
