Variational energy band theory for polarons : mapping polaron structure with the global-local method

In this paper we revisit from a contemporary perspective a classic problem of polaron theory in one dimension using a new variational approach generalizing that of Toyozawa, based on delocalized trial states including mixed gobal and local exciton-phonon correlations. Polaron structure is represente...
