New measure of electron correlation

arXiv:quant-ph/0503098 · doi:10.1103/PhysRevLett.95.123003

Abstract

We propose to quantify the "correlation" inherent in a many-electron (or many-fermion) wavefunction by comparing it to the unique uncorrelated state that has the same single-particle density operator as it does.
