Description

Pole expansions of the Green function (Berggren and Mittag-Leffler) are used to calculate single-particle and particle-hole response functions for a square well plus Coulomb potential and the results are compared with the corresponding exact ones. The approximate and exact response functions agree well with each other in the resonant energy region. The Mittag-Leffler expansion is shown to be valid even for the long-range Coulomb potential. The computation time needed for the calculation of the particle-hole response function can be reduced considerably by using the pole expansions
