Abstract

A stationary state of maximal entropy is derived as a solution of a variational procedure. Generators of a continuous group are used as the constraints. The self-consistent hamiltonian is linear in these generators so that the solution of the self-consistency problem is replaced by a solution of an algebraic equation. The familiar Hartree-Fock procedure is a special case.
