Fock matrix element was assumed the atomic orbital energy, the Hamitonian plus interaction with other electrons. Along this line, I believe, for any one-electron system, the Fock and Hamitonian should be identical. However, the two turn out not the saame: taking hydrogen molecule ion as an example, calculated by Gaussian, the resultant Fock matrix is quite distinct from the Hamitonian. I do not know where it is wrong. Could anyone show me a way out? S. Yao, igors2003###163.com
