In 1930 Slater and V. A. Fock independently pointed out that the Hartree method did not respect the principle of antisymmetry of the wave function. The Hartree method used the Pauli exclusion principle in its older formulation, forbidding the presence of two electrons in the same quantum state.

In computational chemistry, post-Hartree–Fock methods are the set of methods developed to improve on the Hartree–Fock (HF), or self-consistent field (SCF) method. They add electron correlation which...

Again, the Hartree-Fock method seeks to approximately solve the electronic Schrödinger equation, and it assumes that the wavefunction can be approximated by a single Slater determinant made up of one spin orbital per electron.

Hartree Fock theory is one the simplest approximate theories for solving the many-body Hamiltonian. It is based on a simple approximation to the true many-body wavefunction: that the wavefunction is given by a single Slater determinant of spin-orbitals...

These examples illustrate a more general procedure known as Hartree-Fock theory or the Hartree-Fock approximation. Hartree-Fock (HF) theory makes several important assumptions:
