The relationship between the topological structure of the
multidimensional configuration space and the
structure of the symmetrical permutation group
SN
is analyzed. This relationship permits
to separate the
spin and spatial variables during the solution of the spinless
stationary Schrödinger equation. It is possible
to simplify the construction of wave functions for
N-electron systems and to expand the class of trial
functions
in the variation method. The relation of the suggested approach to
the construction of wave functions by
traditional methods is demonstrated by the example of three-electron
systems.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
