Abstract

In quantum chemistry one usually deals with many-electron systems, and the wave functions depend on the coordinates of all the electrons. Except for very special cases (like He, H2), the wave functions applied are constructed of one-electron functions as building blocks, requesting the many-electron wave functions to satisfy the Pauli principle (and trying, of course to get an approximation to the exact solution that is as good as possible).
