Abstract
Interrelations between the local and the global aspects of the stability, continuity, and symmetry properties of variational wave‐functions are discussed. The spherical limit of one‐electron diatomic molecules and the Hartree–Fock approximation of the ground state of the two‐electron atom are shown to exhibit the various concepts involved in an ab initio, yet sufficiently simple, manner.

## Abstract Wave‐functions of various spin‐dependent and spin‐free methods are examined from the point of view of the requirements of the exclusion principle and the spin projection. It is shown that the “two‐rowed” or “two‐columned” requirements of the standard Young tableaux are necessary but not
A general scheme to symmetrize a broken symmetry wave function is described. It offers great flexibility in the choice of the set of functions used to expand the symmetrized functions. The traditional symmetrization approaches are related to some particular choices of these functions. New choices ar
