Abstract: We consider the quantum dynamics of charge transfer on a lattice in the tight-binding approximation and analytically calculate the integral characteristics of the wave packet propagating along the lattice. We focus on calculating the mean and root-mean-square displacements. We also obtain expressions for higher-order moments as series for squares of Bessel functions, which might be independently interesting.

Keywords: quantum dynamics, tight-binding approximation, moments of distribution function.
