In the RISM-SCF theory, the statistical solvent distribution around the solute is determined by the electronic structure of the solute, whereas the electronic strucmre of the solute is influenced by the surrounding solvent distribution. Therefore, the ab initio MO calculation and the RISM equation must be solved in a self-consistent manner. It is noted that SCF (self-consistent field) applies not only to the electronic structure calculation but to the whole system, e.g., a self-consistent treatment of electronic structure and solvent distribution. The MO part of the method can be readily extended to the more sophisticated levels beyond Hartree-Fock (HF), such as configuration interaction (Cl) and coupled cluster (CC). 

New Method for Constructing Pure Spin Functions. Extended Hartree-Fock Scheme... 

A common feature of the Hartree-Fock scheme and the two generalizations discussed in Section III.F is that all physical results depend only on the two space density matrices p+ and p, which implies that the physical and mathematical simplicity of the model is essentially preserved. The differences lie in the treatment of the total spin in the conventional scheme, the basic determinant is a pure spin function as a consequence of condition 11.61, in the unrestricted scheme, the same determinant is a rather undetermined mixture of different spin states, and, in the extended scheme, one considers only the component of the determinant which has the pure spin desired. 

It should also be observed that there exists an approximation which is "intermediate between the unrestricted and the extended Hartree-Fock scheme. In starting from the former, the energy is increased by the mixing in of unappropriate spin states, and it can hence be essentially improved by selecting the component of the pure spin desired. It is clear that the energy obtained... 

This means that one has to be extremely careful in making physical interpretations of the results of the unrestricted Hartree-Fock scheme, even if one has selected the pure spin component desired. In many cases, it is probably safer to carry out an additional variation of the orbitals for the specific spin component under consideration, i.e., to go over to the extended Hartree-Fock scheme. In the unrestricted scheme, one has obtained mathematical simplicity at the price of some physical confusion—in the extended scheme, the physical simplicity is restored, but the corresponding Hartree-Fock equations are now more complicated to solve. We probably have to accept these mathematical complications, since it is ultimately the physics of the system we are interested in.

Further improvements to the previous UHF schemes can be obtained by using the Projected (PHF) and Extended (EHF) Hartree-Fock schemes. Lowdin has shown that if one carries out a component analysis of the non-pure UHF wave function, there is at least... 

The theoretical results provided by the large basis sets II-V are much smaller than those from previous references [15-18] the present findings confirm that the second-hyperpolarizability is largely affected by the basis set characteristics. It is very difficult to assess the accuracy of a given CHF calculation of 2(ap iS, and it may well happen that smaller basis sets provide theoretical values of apparently better quality. Whereas the diagonal eomponents of the eleetrie dipole polarizability are quadratic properties for which the Hartree-Fock limit can be estimated with relative accuracy a posteriori, e.g., via extended calculations [38], it does not seem possible to establish a variational principle for, and/or upper and lower bounds to, either and atris-... 

These compounds have been the subject of several theoretical [7,11,13,20)] and experimental[21] studies. Ward and Elliott [20] measured the dynamic y hyperpolarizability of butadiene and hexatriene in the vapour phase by means of the dc-SHG technique. Waite and Papadopoulos[7,ll] computed static y values, using a Mac Weeny type Coupled Hartree-Fock Perturbation Theory (CHFPT) in the CNDO approximation, and an extended basis set. Kurtz [15] evaluated by means of a finite perturbation technique at the MNDO level [17] and using the AMI [22] and PM3[23] parametrizations, the mean y values of a series of polyenes containing from 2 to 11 unit cells. At the ab initio level, Hurst et al. [13] and Chopra et al. [20] studied basis sets effects on and y. It appeared that diffuse orbitals must be included in the basis set in order to describe correctly the external part of the molecules which is the most sensitive to the electrical perturbation and to ensure the obtention of accurate values of the calculated properties. 

In this chapter we make first contact with the electron density. We will discuss some of its properties and then extend our discussion to the closely related concept of the pair density. We will recognize that the latter contains all information needed to describe the exchange and correlation effects in atoms and molecules. An appealing avenue to visualize and understand these effects is provided by the concept of the exchange-correlation hole which emerges naturally from the pair density. This important concept, which will be of great use in later parts of this book, will finally be used to discuss from a different point of view why the restricted Hartree-Fock approach so badly fails to correctly describe the dissociation of the hydrogen molecule. 

The basis AO adopted may be Slater-type AO 11), Gaussian AO 12>, and Hartree-Fock AO 13>, Lowdin s orthogonalized AO 14>, and so on. In many cases the Slater AO s for the valence-shell electrons are taken. Clementi has extended the basis beyond the valence shells 15>. Frequently, the exponents of Slater AO s are optimized. Clementi has also adopted two different variable exponents for "one Slater AO 15>. 

We applied the Liouville-von Neumann (LvN) method, a canonical method, to nonequilibrium quantum phase transitions. The essential idea of the LvN method is first to solve the LvN equation and then to find exact wave functionals of time-dependent quantum systems. The LvN method has several advantages that it can easily incorporate thermal theory in terms of density operators and that it can also be extended to thermofield dynamics (TFD) by using the time-dependent creation and annihilation operators, invariant operators. Combined with the oscillator representation, the LvN method provides the Fock space of a Hartree-Fock type quadratic part of the Hamiltonian, and further allows to improve wave functionals systematically either by the Green function or perturbation technique. In this sense the LvN method goes beyond the Hartree-Fock approximation.

This survey of theoretical methods for a qualitative description of homogeneous catalysis would not be complete without a mention to the Hartree-Fock-Slater, or Xot, method [36]. This approach, which can be formulated as a variation of the LDA DFT, was well known before the formal development of density functional theory, and was used as the more accurate alternative to extended Hiickel in the early days of computational transition metal chemistry. 

This mechanistic question is one of the examples of the success of density functional theory methods in organometallic chemistry. Earlier work on the reaction mechanism could not discriminate between the two alternatives. Analysis of the different orbitals based on extended Hiickel calculations came to the result that the [3+2] pathway is more likely, but could not exclude the possibility of a [2+2] pathway [13]. Similar conclusions where obtained from the results of Hartree-Fock calculations in combination with QCISD(T) single point calculations [21], Attempts to use Ru04 as a model for osmium tetraoxide indicated that the formation of an oxetane is less favorable compared to the [3+2] pathway, but still possible [22, 23],...
