Abstract

The Fermi hole is a direct consequence of the exclusion
principle for electronic wavefunctions of atoms, molecules, and
solid state structures. The shape of the Fermi hole is determined
by a function which is parametrically dependent on the position
of a probe electron. The natural representation of this function is ·
determined by a set of Fermi hole na1ural orbitals and their
occupation numbers. The Fermi hole for a wavefunction consisting
of a single Slater determinant is given by the square of a Fermi
orbital. The sensitivity of a Fermi orbital to the position of the
probe electron is given by the Fermi hole mobility function. A set
of Fermi orbitals can be used to transform a set of canonical
SCF molecular orbitals into localized orbitals.
