Experiments show that light-matter strong coupling affects chemical properties, though the underlying mechanism remains unclear. A major challenge is to perform reliable and affordable simulation of molecular behavior when many molecules are collectively coupled same optical mode. This paper presents an quantum electrodynamics cluster method for collective regime. The model describes electronic electron-photon correlation within a subsystem, while simplified description polaritonic excitations allows realistic microscopic coupling. developed framework provides computationally tractable route accurately simulate molecule in environment, which unfeasible several treated explicitly.

Perturbative approaches are methods to efficiently tackle many-body problems, offering both intuitive insights and analysis of correlation effects. However, their application systems where light matter strongly coupled is nontrivial. Specifically, the definition suitable orbitals for zeroth-order Hamiltonian represents a significant theoretical challenge. While reviewing previously investigated orbital choices, this work presents an alternative polaritonic basis strong coupling regime. We develop quantum electrodynamical (QED) Møller–Plesset perturbation theory using obtained from QED Hartree–Fock. assess strengths limitations different with emphasis on frequency strength dispersions, intermolecular interactions polarization orientational The results show essential role consistent molecular framework in order achieve accurate description cavity-induced electron−photon
