A variational product-state mean-field method in which each electron moves in the average electrostatic field of the others; it omits exact exchange antisymmetry.

This is an authored directed relation from the source endpoint to the target endpoint.
Hartree theory restricts the many-electron wavefunction to a product of orbitals.
The target is a model, idealization, restricted ansatz, approximation scheme, phenomenological fit, or historical representation used for the source system or theory. It need not have a universal small error parameter and is not thereby a controlled limit or effective theory. The edge label and detail must identify the precise status.

This is an authored directed relation from the source endpoint to the target endpoint.
Hartree–Fock replaces the Hartree product by a variational Slater determinant and thereby includes exchange while still omitting correlation beyond one determinant.
A more specific theory, model, entity class, or regime is obtained by restricting or extending the scope of a broader framework.
