Abstract
The squeezed-state approach is used to construct the trial ground state wavefunction of the two-site two-electron Peierls-Hubbard system and then the ground state energy and the charge transfer are calculated by means of the variational principle. The comparison with the exact and approximate results of previous authors shows that the approach gives a rather good description of the continuous variation of the ground state energy and the charge transfer as functions of the electron-phonon couplingS and the electronic correlationU for the undistorted situation as well as for the strong mixing between the undistorted and distorted states.
