Koopmans Theorem and the Roothan Equations

The HF equatios are Fi i = i i , i = 1K n Fi = Ti + Ji Ki Ji = Coulomb operator in the average field of ji electrons Ki = Exchange operator in the average field of ji electrons i are the orbital energies. They are a good approximation to the magnitude of the ionization energy for an electron in the orbital i.

Proof Clearly i F i = i , where i = i h i +

For electron ionization (detachment) I.P. = EN-EN-1 take electron from kth orbital = 1 2 L k k +1 L HN 1 2 L k k +1 L 1 2 L k +1 L HN 1 12 L k +1 L = k h k + J kj Kkj = k q.e.d.

Write

where {XL } is a complete set of functions. In atomic case these functions are orthonormal. Substitute into eqs. (1) and (2) respectively, and proceed as usual to get the linear equations which lead to diagonalization of a Hamiltonian matrix. Start with a zero order guess for
1s

and

2 s

as usual, by choosing one coefficient C to be one and the

others zero to evaluate the coulomb and exchange operators. Then diagonalize and get a new set of Cs. Use these to evaluate the coulomb and exchange operators, and diagonalize again. Continue until the process converges and the orbital energies converge.
