Abstract

A time-dependent self-consistent field approach is developed for the dynamics of a local excitation coupled to its molecular environment, starting from the time-correlation function of transition operators. A variational functional is used to derive a factorized TCF with the correct normalization and phase factor. We also show what conditions are sufficient to justify the assumption of localized dynamics.
