Abstract
We have applied the microscopic coupled-cluster method (CCM) of many-body quantum theory to the U(1) lattice gauge models in (1+1) and (2+1) dimensions. The mode couplings and plaquette correlations are studied in detail by means of a hierarchical truncation scheme. Good numerical results for the ground-state energy have been obtained for a range of coupling constants varying from strong to weak. The systematic and nonperturbative natures of the CCM are emphasized.
