The parameter $U$ controls the strength of the electron correlation.
|
||||
In the weak correlation regime (small $U$), the kinetic energy dominates and the electrons are delocalised over both sites.
|
||||
In the large-$U$ (or strong correlation) regime, the electron repulsion term drives the physics and the electrons localise on opposite sites to minimise their Coulomb repulsion.

In the most flexible variant of real HF theory (generalised HF) the one-electron orbitals can be complex-valued

and contain a mixture of spin-up and spin-down components.\cite{Mayer_1993}
|

However, the application of HF with some level of constraint on the orbital structure is far more common.
|
||||
Forcing the spatial part of the orbitals to be the same for spin-up and spin-down electrons leads to restricted HF (RHF) theory, while allowing different for different spins leads to the so-called unrestricted HF (UHF) approach.
|

The advantage of the UHF approximation is its ability to correctly describe strongly correlated systems,
|

such as the dissociation of the hydrogen dimer.\cite{Coulson_1949}

However, by allowing different orbitals for different spins, the UHF is no longer required to be an eigenfunction of
