Infinite Volume Extrapolations of Finite Cluster Calculations, ---How Correct are These?
Extrapolations of numerical data obtained from finite cluster calculations to the infinite volume limit can often give incorrect results. We discuss four separate cases: (a) the intensity of the lowest two-photon absorption in the infinite polyene, (b) bond alternation in the infinite polyene, (c) Cooper type pairing in the simple Hubbard model, and (d) pairing within the extended Hubbard model.
