Abstract
This work gives a brief overview of the backgrounds of the self-consistent mean-field theory as applied to the problem of interaction between charge-regulated surfaces in the presence of polyelectrolytes. A general algorithm for obtaining a self-consistent solution is described, and the asymptotic properties of the solution at close separations are analyzed. Known limitations of the self-consistent field approximation are discussed, highlighting the role of local effects and system equilibration.
