λ=0→1
is an on off switch of perturbation H 0
H |ψn i = En |ψn i
Ĥ |ψn i = (H+λH 0 )(|χn i+λ |φ1n i+λ2 |φ2n i+λ3 |φ3n i+.)
Assume there some eigen values for both H and H 0
some may be trivially zero Group all the terms with
same power of λ
e.g λ = 0 is simply H0 |ψn0 i = En0 |ψn0 i rewrite as
∆E 1 = hχn | H 0 |χn i
