1. In general the Slater determinant is evaluated by the Laplace expansion. 2. Each assignment corresponds to one Slater determinant , D _ i. 3. Mathematically, configurations are described by Slater determinants or configuration state functions. 4. An antisymmetric wave function can be mathematically described using the Slater determinant . 5. Arguably, the Slater determinant is the simplest type of fermionic wave function. 6. Not every fermionic wave function can be put in the form of a Slater determinant . 7. The usual wave function is obtained using the Slater determinant and the identical particles theory. 8. The usual wave function is obtained using the slater determinant and the identical particles theory. 9. The orbitals are optimized by requiring them to minimize the energy of the respective Slater determinant . 10. The Hartree Fock electronic wave function is then the Slater determinant constructed out of these orbitals.
