Non-analyticity of self-consistent field approaches: failure of predicting symmetry

L S Cederbaum, F Tarantelli and P Winkler

It is found that the Fock operator is not necessarily dilatation analytic in symmetry changing situations. This leads to an unreliability of self-consistent fields to predict symmetry (e.g., the correct point group of a molecule). The analysis shows that the non-analyticity is particularly relevant for open-shell systems. Possibilities to circumvent these difficulties are briefly mentioned. The discussion applies also to the complex rotation method.
