A methbd for the construction of ;h& hermitaan’tiodel hakiltonian in &a framework of thequasidegenerate Rayleigh@ertuxbationtheory is kuggesterj. The approach of a model hamiltonian is bati on the assunption that ifit

in a chosen fmitedimension~
model space it will yield eigenvalues of the origin&l

The calculation of the eigenvaIu6s of a hamilt~~~ which describe some’molecular system, is one of the basic prdblems of quantuq chemistry. If we attempt to solve this problem using the standard Rayleighh-Ritz variational method, then we meet some difficulties originating from the diagonalization of a hermitean matrix ofenotious dimensiondity. An alternative approach fir overcoming these difficulties is the perturbation theory, namely, its idea of a model hamiltonian defined in a unite-Dimensions model space. The approach of a model ham~tonian is based on the assumption. that if it is diagon~zed in a model space it will yield eigenv@ues of the originat perturbed hamiltonian defmed in the entire Hilbert space. It s,ho&be emphasized that the method of a’model hamiltonian in tfie present short communication is noting else than a natural extension of the non-degenerate perturbation
theorv to a more generaleither degenerateor quasi*de~eRerat~ pe~~rbation theory. Genera& speaking,the model h~~ton~ans, sj~arly as the standard perturbation theoq, CXLbe cIassif%d into two types: Those which are dependent on the pertukbed eigenenerm E and those’which are nor: dependent OR E. An Emdependent model hamiltonian was formulated as an extension of the Bril.lo&-Wigner perturbation theory-by Bloch and Horowiti [I] tid L6wdin (21.
