Abstract
The properties of the Gutzwiller variational wave function, which is frequently used to study ground-state properties of correlated fermions with a short-range interaction, are investigated by use of a new, analytically tractable approach. As a first application several ground-state quantities are evaluated exactly in dimensionality d=1 for arbitrary band-filling and interaction strengths. The results allow for the first approximation-free assessment of the wave function. The method itself is applicable to arbitrary space dimensions.
