Abstract
The Chebyshev operator is a discrete cosine-type propagator that bears many formal similarities with the time propagator. It has some unique and desirable numerical properties that distinguish it as an optimal propagator for a wide variety of quantum mechanical studies of molecular systems. In this contribution, we discuss some recent applications of the Chebyshev propagator to scattering problems, including the calculation of resonances, cumulative reaction probabilities, S-matrix elements, cross-sections, and reaction rates.
