Notes:
A consistent propagator approximation, denoted as the excitation propagator, is introduced. This propagator describes excitations between N-particle states and its approximation has properties required of consistent random phase approximation schemes. Several properties of this propagator are explored when based on a generalized antisymmetrized geminal power wavefunction. How singularities in the metric occur and how to remove them is discussed in detail. The excitation propagator is also contrasted with the principal (polarization) propagator.
