In quantum chemistry, Brillouin's theorem, proposed by the French physicist Léon Brillouin in 1934, states that given a self-consistent optimized Hartree-Fock wavefunction , the matrix element of the Hamiltonian between the ground state and a single excited determinant (i.e. one where an occupied orbital ''a'' is replaced by a virtual orbital ''r'') :: This theorem is important in constructing a configuration interaction method, among other applications. ==Proof== The electronic Hamiltonian of the system can be divided into two parts: one consisting one-electron operators . Using the Slater-Condon rules we can simply evaluate :: which we recognize is simply an off-diagonal element of the Fock matrix . But the whole point of the SCF procedure was to diagonalize the Fock matrix and hence for an optimized wavefunction this quantity must be zero. 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア(Wikipedia)』 ■ウィキペディアで「Brillouin's theorem」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
