Abstract

The ground state of $^{16}\mathrm{O}$ is calculated by using a time-dependent density-matrix approach derived from a new truncation scheme of the Bogoliubov--Born--Green--Kirkwood--Yvon hierarchy for reduced density matrices, where a three-body density matrix is approximated by an antisymmetrized product of two-body density matrices. The new scheme is compared with a simpler truncation scheme previously used for the calculation of the ground state of $^{16}\mathrm{O}$ where the three-body density matrix is neglected and only two-particle--two-hole elements of the two-body density matrix are considered. It is shown that the results obtained from the two truncation schemes agree well with the exact solution.
