What Does AGP Stand For?

AGP stands for Antisymmetrized Geminal Power Wave Function

AGP, or Antisymmetrized Geminal Power Wave Function, is a quantum mechanical approach utilized in the field of many-body physics and quantum chemistry. It represents a class of wave functions constructed as antisymmetrized products of pairs of single-particle states, effectively capturing the correlations between fermions such as electrons. The AGP method is particularly important for describing strongly correlated systems and has applications in various areas, including quantum computing and the study of superconductivity. Its flexibility allows for the efficient representation of complex electronic structures while maintaining the antisymmetry requirement of fermionic wave functions.
