Abstract

A variational approach based on Maximum Entropy considerations is used for the construction of trial ground state wave functions of correlated fermion systems. Results for the one-dimensional version of the Hubbard model show that the method allows for a sensibly better evaluation of the ground state energy than the one provided by the Gutzwiller approximation, being in a good agreement with the exact values.
