Many-body nodal hypersurface and domain averages for correlated wave functions

Abstract

We outline the basic notions of nodal hypersurface and domain averages for antisymmetric wave functions. We illustrate their properties and analyze the results for a few electron explicitly solvable cases and discuss possible further developments.
