qcheff 0.2.1

Effective Hamiltonian calculator for quantum systems.

${\rm qCH_{eff}}$

${\rm qCH_{eff}}$ (/kju ʃɛf/) calculates effective Hamiltonians for quantum systems.

Getting Started

${\rm qCH_{eff}}$ can be installed using pip:

pip install qcheff

Detailed installation instruction are provided here. CuPy is required in order to use the GPU for computations.
