Best N-term approximation in electronic structure calculations I. One-electron reduced density matrix
ESAIM: Modélisation mathématique et analyse numérique, Tome 40 (2006) no. 1, pp. 49-61.

We discuss best N-term approximation spaces for one-electron wavefunctions φ i and reduced density matrices ρ emerging from Hartree-Fock and density functional theory. The approximation spaces A q α (H 1 ) for anisotropic wavelet tensor product bases have been recently characterized by Nitsche in terms of tensor product Besov spaces. We have used the norm equivalence of these spaces to weighted q spaces of wavelet coefficients to proof that both φ i and ρ are in A q α (H 1 ) for all α>0 with α=1 q-1 2. Our proof is based on the assumption that the φ i possess an asymptotic smoothness property at the electron-nuclear cusps.
