Symmetry-conserving variational dynamics: Application to quasispin systems

A time-dependent variational procedure is proposed that possesses the same constants of the motion as the exact many-body Schrödinger dynamics. The class of trial wave functions is larger than the manifold of Slater determinants that supports the time-dependent Hartree-Fock dynamics. These wave func...
