Abstract

A new type of molecular dynamics us proposed to solved approximately the many-body problem of interacting identical fermions with 1/2. The interacting system is represented by an antisymmetrized many-body wave function consisting of single-particle states which are localized in phase. The equations of motion for the parameters characterizing the many-body state (e.g. positions, momenta and spin of the particles) are derived from a quantum variational principle. The proposed Fermionic Molecular Dynamics (FMD) model is illustrated with help of two examples.
