Another approach to electron correlation is Moller-Plesset perturbation theory. Qualitatively, Moller-Plesset perturbation theory adds higher excitations to Hartree-Fock theory as a non-iterative correction, drawing upon techniques from the area of mathematical physics known as many body perturbation theory. 

In 1883 Hertz was appointed Privstdnzent for mathematical physics at Kiel, and after two years became a full professor at the Technische Hochschule in Karlsruhe. In 1889 Hertz left Karlsruhe to assume his last academic post as Professor of Physics at the Friedrich-Wilhelm University in Bonn. Five years later, following a long period of declining health and many painful operations, Heinrich Hertz died in Bonn of blood poisoning on January 1, 1894, a few months before his thirty-seventh birthday. 

Jean-Baptiste Biot (1774-1862) was born in Paris, France, and was educated there at the Ecole Polytechnique. In 1800. he was appointed professor of mathematical physics atthe College de France. His work on determining the optica rotation of naturally occurring molecules included an experiment on turpentine, which caught fire and nearly burned down the church building he was using for his experiments. 

Two theoreticians working in the latter half of the nineteenth century changed the very nature of chemistry by deriving the mathematical laws that govern the behavior of matter undergoing physical or chemical change. One of these was James Clerk Maxwell, whose contributions to kinetic theory were discussed in Chapter 5. The other was J. Willard Gibbs, Professor of Mathematical Physics at Yale from 1871 until his death in 1903.

For the second-order difference equations capable of describing the basic mathematical-physics problems, boundary-value problems with additional conditions given at different points are more typical. For example, if we know the value for z = 0 and the value for i = N, the corresponding boundary-value problem can be formulated as follows it is necessary to find the solution yi, 0 < i < N, of problem (6) satisfying the boundary conditions... 

Due to serious achievements of the Russian and foreign mathematicians in applied mathematics the majority of mathematical-physics problems may be reduced to computational algorithms, at every step of which 3-point equations like (6) with conditions (8 ) must be solved. 

The statement of a difference problem. In the preceding sections we were interested in approximate substitutions of difference operators for differential ones. However, many problems of mathematical physics involve not only differential eqnations, but also the supplementary conditions (boundary and initial) which guide a proper choice of a unique solution from the collection of possible solutions. 

On the concept of well-posedness for a difference problem. There is another matter which is one of some interest. In conformity with statements of problems of mathematical physics, it is fairly common to call a problem well-posed if the following conditions are satisfied ... 

The search for eigenfunctions and eigenvalues in the example of the simplest difference problem. The method of separation of variables being involved in the apparatus of mathematical physics applies equelly well to difference problems. Employing this method enables one to split up an original problem with several independent variables into a series of more simpler problems with a smaller number of variables. As a rule, in this situation eigenvalue problems with respect to separate coordinates do arise. Difference problems can be solved in a quite similar manner. 

In this section a unified interpretation of difference equations as operator equations in an abstract space is carried out and, after this, the corresponding definitions of approximation, stability and convergence are presented. This approach is quite applicable in mathematical physics for stationary problems.

Here we treat it as a model one. However, the arguments about this matter can result in the design of interesting experiments, whose aims and scope are to test and improve admisssible schemes for rather complicated equations of acoustics, kinematic integrodifferential equations of neutron transfer, nonlinear equations of gas dynamics, etc. Because of the enormous range and variety of problems dealt with by mathematical physics, the contents of this section would be of the methodological merit. 

The economy requirement in the case of nonstationary problems in mathematical physics generally means that the number of arithmetic operations needed in connection with solving difference equations in passing from one layer to another is proportional to the total number of grid nodes.
