REDUCED BASIS METHOD 2

Approach 2

Also known as Eigenvector Continuation (EC)

  • Tune the strength of the potential to train the emulator
  • Then extrapolate to the desired region

Can be utilized in two ways:

  1. Narrow–to–broad extrapolation
  2. Bound–to–resonant extrapolation

REDUCED BASIS METHOD 2: BOUND–TO–RESONANT

  • Naïve EC does not work
  • Needs Conjugate–Augmented Eigenvector Continuation (CA–EC)
  • Basic idea: Augment the emulator with proper asymptotics

BERGGREN BASIS

  • Deform the contour below the resonance poles, picking up the poles
  • Use this basis to construct Slater determinants of the few–body system

REDUCED BASIS METHODS

  •  
  • Can be solved via iteration
  • Too expensive to solve simultaneously
  • RBMs facilitate this
  • Galerkin projection is used to to construct RB expansion
