Abstract
The generalized density matrix method is used to calculate microscopically the parameters of the collective Hamiltonian. Higher-order anharmonicities are obtained consistently with the lowest-order results, the mean field (Hartree-Fock-Bogoliubov equation), and the harmonic potential (quasiparticle random-phase approximation). The method is applied to soft spherical nuclei, where the anharmonicities are essential for restoring the stability of the system, as the harmonic potential becomes small or negative. The approach is tested in three models of increasing complexity: the Lipkin model, model with factorizable forces, and the quadrupole plus pairing model.
