Abstract: An efficient method to exactly compute the adiabatic time-dependent Hartree-Fock-Bogoliubov collective vibrational inertias typical of fission is proposed. The method uses the quasiparticle finite amplitude method to invert the stability matrix of linear response. A comparison with other approaches, such as the exact generator coordinate method inertia and the associated cranking non-perturbative approximation, is conducted. It is found that the behaviour as a function of the collective variable (mass quadrupole moment) is essentially the same in the four cases considered, and substantially differs from the commonly used perturbative approach. It is also found that the magnitudes of the inertias are to a good extent related by single factors that seem to be connected with the effective mass of the energy density functional used.
