The generalization from empirically determined screened pseudopotentials to self-consistently screened ab initio pseudopotentials had led to widespread use of the method in solid state applications. The method is reviewed here, beginning with the formal basis in density functional theory. Algorithms for solving the one-particle equations and evaluating the density functional expression for the energy are presented. Special attention is given to the developments in iteration to self-consistency, and to the implications of the variational nature of the energy. An extensive list is given of the broad range of applications of the self-consistent pseudopotential method for describing properties of condensed matter systems.

This paper shows how to use the Floquet—Green's function method to define and obtain stationary cross sections for radiative electron scattering and ionization in a strong laser field. The method is illustrated by solving a number of hitherto unsolved problems. The computational problem is thereby reduced to evaluating known functions and determinants.

The adiabatic switching method is characterized through a discussion of formal adiabatic theory and through a variety of numerical examples. Adiabatic invariance theory for one degree of freedom problems is developed in detail. This provides a formal basis for the analysis of various aspects of the method. The role of: 1) the switching function, 2) the zero order reference Hamiltonian, and 3) ensemble averaging of results are addressed with more rigour function than in previous discussions. The use of adiabatic switching to implement EBK quantization is illustrated by a treatment of the Henon-Heiles system. It is shown how adiabatic switching is useful for periodic orbit determination and adiabatic propagation of semiclassical eigenstates. The behavior of the conjugate angle variables in near adiabatic dynamics is formally and numerically explored. The theory of adiabatic separatrix crossing is developed and several aspects of the theory are numerically tested for a time-dependent quartic double well.
