The Hartree-Fock states of the many-electron atomic system can be unstable with respect to a static or dynamic shift of the electron shells. An appropriate non-rigid shell model for atomic clusters is developed. It permits to formulate a…
We analyzed the Hartree-Fock approximation for an electron system. The interaction between particles is modeled by a non-Coulombian potential. We analyzed both the three-dimensional and two-dimensional systems. We obtained accurate…
The spherical Hartree-Fock approximation is applied to the $abinitio$ no-core shell model, with a realistic effective nucleon-nucleon interaction in order to investigate the range of its utility. Hartree-Fock results for binding energies,…
We prove within the Hartree-Fock theory of pseudo-relativistic atoms that the maximal negative ionization charge and the ionization energy of an atom remain bounded independently of the nuclear charge Z and the fine structure constant…
We consider a molecule described by the Hartree-Fock model without the exchange term. We prove that nuclei of total charge $Z$ can bind at most $Z+C$ electrons, where $C$ is a constant independent of $Z$.
In this paper, we study the relationship between the Dirac--Fock model and the electron-positron Hartree--Fock model. We justify the Dirac--Fock model as a variational approximation of QED when the vacuum polarization is neglected and when…
The familiar unrestricted Hartree-Fock variational principle is generalized to include quasi-free states. As we show, these are in one-to-one correspondence with the one-particle density matrices and these, in turn provide a convenient…
Time-dependent Hartree-Fock theory is used to describe density oscillations of symmetry-unrestricted two-dimensional nanostructures. In the small amplitude limit the results reproduce those obtained within a perturbative approach such as…
The density of an atom in a state of well-defined angular momentum has a specific finite spherical harmonic content, without and with interactions. Approximate single-particle schemes, such as the Hartree, Hartree-Fock, and Local Density…
Hartree--Fock theory in quantum mechanics is reviewed, from the proposal of the Hartree--Fock approximation right after quantum mechanics was formulated to its applications in modern physics. This includes the description of traditional…
In this paper we study the problem of uniqueness of solutions to the Hartree and Hartree-Fock equations of atoms. We show, for example, that the Hartree-Fock ground state of a closed shell atom is unique provided the atomic number $Z$ is…
The Hartree-Fock (HF) approximation has been an important tool for quantum-chemical calculations since its earliest appearance in the late 1920s, and remains the starting point of most single-reference methods in use today. Intuition…
Projected Hartree-Fock theory provides an accurate description of many kinds of strong correlation but does not properly describe weakly correlated systems. Coupled cluster theory, in contrast, does the opposite. It therefore seems natural…
The shell structure of magic nuclei far from stability is discussed in terms of the self-consistent spherical Hartree-Fock-Bogoliubov theory. In particular, the sensitivity of the shell-gap sizes and the two-neutron separation energies to…
A practical electronic structure method in which a two-body functional is the fundamental variable is constructed. The basic formalism of our method is equivalent to Hartree-Fock density matrix functional theory [M. Levy in {\it Density…
It is shown that, in the self-consistent quantum statistical Hartree-Fock approximation, the number of electronic states localized on one nucleus is finite. This result is obtained on the basis of the general electron-nuclear model of…

We present an ideal system of interacting fermions where the solutions of the many-body Schroedinger equation can be obtained without making approximations. These exact solutions are used to test the validity of two many-body effective…
