Abstract
The stability conditions for the solutions of a two-unrestricted-determinant function (the half-projected Hartree-Fock function) are deduced from the necessary requirements for the minimization of the energy functional. The theory is applied to the case of the LiH ground state, in order to investigate the various solutions encountered in the variational problem. It is found that the two lowest solutions are local minima. The number of these solutions is estimated and their significance discussed as a function of the nuclear separation.Keywords
