Notes:
A method for solving the Hartree-Fock problem in a finite basis set is derived, which permits each orbital to be expanded in a different basis. If the basis set for each orbital φi contains the basis functions for the preceding orbitals, φi-1, φi-2,… φ1, then the φi form an orthonormal set. One advantage over the standard Hartree-Fock method is that a different long range behavior for each orbital, as for example is required in the Hartree-Fock-Slater method, can be forced. A calculation on the ground state of beryllium is performed using the nested procedure. Very little energy is lost because of nesting, and the node in the 1s orbital disappears.
