الوصف: The ferroelectric polarization of perovskite oxides is much larger than implied by displacement of static ionic charges. We use an explicitly correlated scheme to investigate the phenomenon; charge transport is evaluated as a geometric quantum phase. Both covalence and electron-electron interaction enhance polarization in the weakly correlated regime. At higher values of the electron-electron interaction, the system undergoes a transition from a band insulator to a Mott insulator: the static ionic charge is continuous across the transition, whereas the polarization is discontinuous. Above the transition, oxygen transports a positive charge. SISSA Preprint # 174/94/CM/MB Typeset using REVTEX 1 The large values of the spontaneous polarization in ferroelectric perovskites cannot be explained on the basis of a simple ionic model. For instance, the effective dynamical charge associated to an oxygen displacement during the ferroelectric distortion is of the order of
