Abstract

The connected moment expansion (CMX) technique is used to calculate the zero-point energy of an arbitrary system of coupled anharmonic oscillators. When the anharmonic term has the form of a polynomial with respect to the normal coordinates, it is possible to calculate the zero-point energy in a completely automated way. A numerical example is presented, demonstrating the power of the new method.
