Abstract

In this chapter we show that the Rayleigh-Schrödinger perturbation theory is a special case of a solution of an autonomous system of differential equations. Furthermore, we discuss perturbation theory for an anharmonic oscillator. Let be a Hamilton operator with discrete spectrum for ε ≥ 0. Assume further that the eigenvalues are not degenerate. Eigenfunctions are assumed to be real orthonormal. Furthermore the eigenvalues and eigenfunctions of Ĥ0 are known.
