Abstract
These lecture notes are intended to provide an elementary introduction to the use of the methods of diagrammatic Many Body Perturbation Theory (MBPT) for calculations on excited states of molecules. They represent neither a review nor an original article. Consequently the bibliography is limited to a few essential references. Limitations of space permit only a brief discussion of the main ideas. We shall refer the reader to the literature for numerical results where appropriate.
