Abstract
In this work, we review the theory of the electron density in quantum chemistry and discuss to which extent relativistic effects are recovered by approximate relativistic Hamiltonians. For this purpose, we give an overview on different approximations to the fully relativistic many-electron Hamiltonian. In addition, we present new results, considering correlation effects on the electron density of a transition metal complex.
