This lecture delves into the concept of electron correlation, exploring the differences between the chemist's and physicist's views on the topic. It discusses the impact of electron-electron repulsion on the total energy of a system, as well as the creation of exchange-correlation holes. The instructor also covers post-Hartree-Fock methods such as Configuration Interaction and Coupled-Cluster, which aim to improve the accuracy of electronic structure calculations by considering electron correlation.
