Most modern Hiickel programs will accept the molecular structure as the input. In older programs, the input requires the kind of atoms present in the molecule (characterized by their Coulomb integrals a) and the way in which they are connected (described by the resonance integrals. ). These are fed into the computer in the form of a secular determinant. Remember that the Coulomb and resonance integrals cannot be calculated (the mathematical expression of the Hiickel Hamiltonian being unknown) and must be treated as empirical parameters. 

The unpaired electron with its spin S = 1/2 in a sample disposed into the resonator of the EPR spectrometer interacts magnetically a) with the external magnetic field H (Zeeman interaction) b) with the nuclear spin of the host atom or metal ion / (hyperfine interaction) c) with other electron spins S existing in the sample (dipole-dipole interaction). In the last case, electrons can be localized either at the same atom or ion (the so called fine interaction), for example in Ni2+, Co2+, Cr3+, high-spin Fe3+, Mn2+, etc., or others. These interac-tions are characterized energetically by the appropriate spin-Hamiltonian... 

The Fermi resonance Hamiltonian consists of two terms. The first one, Ho, is the Dunham expansion, which characterizes the uncoupled system, while the second term, Hp, is the Fermi resonance coupling, which describes the energy flow between the reactive mode and one perpendicular mode. For the three systems, HCP CPH, HOCl HO - - Cl and HOBr HO + Br, the reactive degree of freedom is the slow component of the Fermi pair and will therefore be labeled s, while the fast component will be labeled /. Thus, the resonance condition writes co/ w 2c0s. More explicitly, for HCP the slow reactive mode is the bend (mode 2) and the fast one is the CP stretch (mode 3), while for HOCl and HOBr the slow mode is the OX stretch (X = Cl,Br) (mode 3) and the fast one is the bend (mode 2). The third, uncoupled mode— that is, the CH stretch (mode 1) for HCP and the OH stretch (mode 1) for HOCl and HOBr—will be labeled u. With these notations, the Dunham expansion writes in the form... 

Heisenberg portion of the Hamiltonian in earlier work (9) for the delocalization terms we assume that a single parameter B characterizes resonance interactions between each pair of sites. Hence, the spin Hamiltonian matrix becomes ... 

According to Chirikov [23J, the onset of chaos is associated with the overlap of neighboring nonlinear resonances. The overlap criterion, which bears the qualitative significance, uses the model of isolated resonances. Each resonance is characterized by its width, the maximum distance (in the action variable) from the elliptic fixed point The overlap means that the sum of the widths of two neighboring resonances is equal to the distance between two fixed points of these isolated resonances. We start with the pendulum Hamiltonian, which describes an isolated 1 N resonance under the periodic perturbation of frequency Q ... 

Resonances are not truly bound states, but they are interpreted as metastable states. Because of the boundary conditions of resonances, the problem is not Hermitian even if the Hamiltonian is (that is, for square integrable eigenfunctions). Resonances are characterized by complex eigenvalues (complex poles of the scattering amplitude)... 

To summarize, for our model Hamiltonian, resonances appear after a bound-virtual and a virtual-virtual resonance transition. There is no method to obtain virtual energies using a square-integrable basis set, even in the complex-rotated formalism. Then, at this point we can ask if FSS is a useful method to study this kind of resonance. As we will show in the next subsection, the answer is yes FSS is a method to obtain near-threshold properties, and with FSS we can characterize the near-threshold resonances by solving the Hermitian (not complex-rotated) Hamiltonian using a real square-integrable basis-set expansion. Moreover, the critical point of the virtual resonance-resonance transition, Xr, could also be obtained using FSS. 

To determine an effective dressed Hamiltonian characterizing a molecule excited by strong laser fields, we have to apply the standard construction of the free effective Hamiltonian (such as the Born-Oppenheimer approximation), taking into account the interaction with the field nonperturbatively (if resonances occur). This leads to four different time scales in general (i) for the motion of the electrons, (ii) for the vibrations of the nuclei, (iii) for the rotation of the nuclei, and (iv) for the frequency of the interacting field. It is well known that it is a good strategy to take into account the time scales from the fastest to the slowest one. 

E and are the energy and the width of the useful part of the continuum (doorway state) [22, 33]. The two-dimensional non-Hermitian effective Hamiltonian (30) is the simplest matrix representation linking the microscopic level characterized by the complex energy E — iFc/2 to the macroscopic level of interest (the resonance). In Eq. (30), the energy of the resonance El is real. We will see below that if the resonance is weakly coupled to the microscopic level (AE F ), the complex part of energy can be uncovered by... 

Va belongs to the inner space of the resonances a) is a wave packet of the continuum a participating in the decay of the resonances into the channel a (doorway state). Vab models the interactions inside and between the decay channels. The drastic limitation of the number of states characterizing V makes it possible to derive an exact expression of the effective Hamiltonian. Using Eq. (10) one finds the exact expressions of T z) and T2(z)... 

In the resonant case, integral trajectories are everywhere dense on tori of smaller dimension. We recall that precisely such a situation characterizes those Hamiltonian systems which admit noncommutative integration (see above). 

Electron spin resonance (ESR) has sometimes been used to characterize electronic and structural properties of transition-metal clusters embedded in frozen rare-gas matrices. Neglecting the spin-orbit coupling, the interaction between electrons and the nuclear magnetic moment of each atom in the cluster can be expressed by the simple Hamiltonian [116, 117] ...
