Erratum: Time-dependent variational principle with constraints for parametrized wave functions (Physical Review A)

Abstract

The sensitivity analysis for the time-dependent variational principle (TDVP) with constraints for parametrized wave functions [K. Ohta, Phys. Rev. A 70, 022503 (2004)] is investigated to assess the geodesic deviation caused by external parameters. The constraints for the sensitivity functions, inherited from the TDVP, are dealt with their consistency conditions. As an example of the sensitivity analysis, the geodesic deviation in the neighborhood of stationary states is investigated for general wave functions. © 2006 The American Physical Society.
