Two numerical methods are used to evaluate the relativistic spectrum of the two-centre Coulomb problem (for the $H_{2}^{+}$ and $Th_{2}^{179+}$ diatomic molecules) in the fixed nuclei approximation by solving the single particle time-independent Dirac equation. The first one is based on a min-max principle and uses a two-spinor formulation as a starting point. The second one is the Rayleigh-Ritz variational method combined with kinematically balanced basis functions. Both methods use a B-spline basis function expansion. We show that accurate results can be obtained with both methods and that no spurious states appear in the discretization process.

The validation and parallel implementation of a numerical method for the solution of the time-dependent Dirac equation is presented. This numerical method is based on a split operator scheme where the space-time dependence is computed in coordinate s pace using the method of characteristics. Thus, most of the steps in the splitting are calculated exactly, making for a very efficient and unconditionally stable method. We show that it is free from spurious solutions related to the fermion-doubling problem and that it can be parallelized very efficiently. We consider a few simple physical systems such as the time evolution of Gaussian wave packets and the Klein paradox. The numerical results obtained are compared to analytical formulas for the validation of the method.
A theoretical study of the intense-field multiphoton ionization of hydrogenlike systems is performed by solving the time-dependent Dirac equation within the dipole approximation. It is shown that the velocity-gauge results agree to the ones in length gauge only if the negative-energy states are included in the time propagation. On the other hand, for the considered laser parameters, no significant difference is found in length gauge if the negative-energy states are included or not. Within the adopted dipole approximation the main relativistic effect is the shift of the ionization potential. A simple scaling procedure is proposed to account for this effect.

We show, through a machine learning approach, that the equilibrium distance, harmonic vibrational frequency, and binding energy of diatomic molecules are universally related. In particular, the relationships between spectroscopic constants are valid independently of the molecular bond. However, they depend strongly on the group and period of the constituent atoms. As a result, we show that by employing the group and period of atoms within a molecule, the spectroscopic constants are predicted with an accuracy of $lesssim 5%$. Finally, the same universal relationships are satisfied when spectroscopic constants from {it ab initio} and density functional theory (DFT) electronic structure methods are employed.
The presence of solvent tunes many properties of a molecule, such as its ground and excited state geometry, dipole moment, excitation energy, and absorption spectrum. Because the energy of the system will vary depending on the solvent configuration, explicit solute-solvent interactions are key to understanding solution-phase reactivity and spectroscopy, simulating accurate inhomogeneous broadening, and predicting absorption spectra. In this tutorial review, we give an overview of factors to consider when modeling excited states of molecules interacting with explicit solvent. We provide practical guidelines for sampling solute-solvent configurations, choosing a solvent model, performing the excited state electronic structure calculations, and computing spectral lineshapes. We also present our recent results combining the vertical excitation energies computed from an ensemble of solute-solvent configurations with the vibronic spectra obtained from a small number of frozen solvent configurations, resulting in improved simulation of absorption spectra for molecules in solution.
In the first part of the paper we give a tensor version of the Dirac equation. In the second part we formulate and analyse a simple model equation which for weak external fields appears to have properties similar to those of the 2--dimensional Dirac equation.
