For sake of simplicity
• non relativistic equations,
• time-independent model,
• nuclei are points at fixed known positions,
• real-valued functions,
• spin not explicitly considered,
simplifications to make it more convenient

Mathematical fundation
• Define the energy functional E() on a set X of functions (the set of all the possible states of the molecule).
• Then find a function (the ground-state) satisfying some given constraint (i.e. constant number of electrons) and minimize the energy E on the convenient set of states :

First ideas in position space
• Analytical solutions• Numerical solutions
– Radial function of in a one-center approximation
– Spheroidal cooordinates for diatomic molecules– Complete numerical integration for diatomic molecules
In the case of atoms numerical integration are reliable

The quantum chemist procedure
• Molecules are not considered as a whole but as constructed from atoms.
• Use of atomic basis sets• Slater type• Gaussian type• Any functions which contain the correct physical
information.• The procedure most widely used consists in writing the
molecular orbitals as LCAO which belong to a given complete set of the Sobolev space )R(H 31

Manageable approximate solutions
• Infinite basis sets are impracticable
• Truncated basis sets
• Large expansions but often to small
• Tendency towards linear dependence
• Inherent deficiencies for GTO– cusp problem– wrong asymptotic decay

Some attempts of numerical solutions
• Integration over a numerical grid
• Finite element method
• Momentum space direct numerical integration
• Numerical solution using a wavelet basis

Finite element method
• Very accurate results for even time-independent problems for simple systems.
• Large storage requirement for the FE matrices for extended three-dimensional systems
• Removal of the singularities inherent in the nuclear potentials.

Momentum space approach(1)
• In position space HF equations are integro-differential
• FT of operators and not of functions

Momentum space approach(3)
• The solutions for bound states ( ) can be obtained by an iterative procedure starting with a LCAO in momentum space ( a modified Lanczos procedure).
• Enables to recover basis functions, and then basis sets not limited in size
• Enables to recover the asymptotic behavior.• Removal of the singularities inherent in the
nuclear and interelectronic potentials.

Momentum space approach(5)
• Disadvantage of a FT of a function is that all information about its support or its singularities is lost.
• A function with high variations of momenta is hardly interpretable
• A compactly supported function requires a lot of sinusoidal functions

A wavelet approach(1)
• The idea is to realize a decomposition with vanishing functions which leads to a momentum representation involving a position parameter
• Functions depending on two variables linked to momentum and position are used

A wavelet approach(3)
• The approach is related to multiresolution analysis, which is a decomposition of the Hilbert space into a chain of closed subspaces.
• The family defined by the scaling function constitutes an o.n. basis set for Vj. Let Wj be the space containing nthe difference in information between Vj-1 and Vj. It allows to decompose

A wavelet approach (4)
• The two part of a Fock operator has to be treated in two differents ways:– The NS form of the Laplacian operator is
solved iteratively– The NS form of the potential term is obtained
by a quadrature formula
