Abstract

It is shown that the computational effort involved in HF calculations can be considerably reduced by applying the following concepts: 1) the use of a localization operator for the direct determination of localized non-orthogonal HF orbitals, 2) the approximation of the interaction potential between different localization centres by a Hartree-like ansatz, 3) the successive calculation of many-body corrections to molecular properties such as the total energy. A numerical application to LiH layers and solid LiH is described.
