Abstract
A quasiparticle Hamiltonian for liquid He3 is derived from matrix elements computed in the correlated representation using realistic He-He interactions. We outline here a prescription for systematically evaluating the irreducible self-energy parts and vertex parts of Green's functions defined in this representation. These quantities lead directly to a determination of ground state and Fermi liquid properties. Earlier work using the same matrix elements has led to numerical results in good quantitative agreement with experiment. The present reformulation serves to clarify its contents and indicate directions for improvement.
