Abstract
A new, simple and efficient method is presented for calculation of the ground and a few excited states of Hubbard chain nanostructures. By using this method, the photoemission spectral function for organic charge transfer salt TTF-TCNQ, is calculated. For a chain with maximum 70 sites the result is in good agreement with the previous works but there is a difference for further number of sites in the chain, which is discussed in the text with all the specifics. We also show that a source of errors in density matrix renormalization group method for a one dimensional chain is the deficiency of the matrix product scheme for generating the desired states of the linear chain.
