Abstract
Consider an atom consisting of N quantized electrons at positions x i and a nucleus fixed at the origin. The Schrödinger Hamiltonian of such a system is given by
acting on \( = \wedge _{i = 1}^N{L^2} \) (R3) (in this exposition, in order to simplify notation, we neglect spin.) Define the ground state of an atom of charge Z by
