 The variational method constitutes a promising approach to estimate the ground-state energy $E_0$ of a system for which exact solutions are unknown.

+\begin{theorem}[Variational method]
 Considering a {\em trial ket} $|\tilde 0\rangle$, which tries to imitate the true ground-state ket $|0\rangle$, it can be shown that
 \begin{equation}
 \tilde E\equiv\frac{\langle \tilde 0|H|\tilde 0\rangle}{\langle \tilde 0|\tilde 0\rangle}
 \ge E_0 \textrm{ ,}
 \end{equation}
 i.e.\ an upper bound to the ground-state energy can be obtained by considering various kinds of $|\tilde 0\rangle$.
-To proof this, $|\tilde 0\rangle$ is expanded by the exact energy eigenkets $|k\rangle$ with

 Moreover, equality in \eqref{sec:vm_f} is only achieved if $|\tilde 0\rangle$ coincides exactly with $|0\rangle$, i.e.\ if the coefficients $\langle k|\tilde 0\rangle$ all vanish for $k\neq 0$.
