Résumé	The Hartree-Fock (HF) method is a foundational self-consistent field approach for solving the many-electron Schrödinger equation. Developed independently by Douglas Hartree and Vladimir Fock in the late 1920s, it approximates the ground state by assuming electrons move in an average field generated by all other electrons, enabling tractable quantum chemistry calculations.	Möller-Plesset perturbation theory is a post-Hartree-Fock method that systematically corrects the HF reference by treating electron correlation as a perturbation. Introduced in 1934, MP theory provides increasingly accurate energy estimates (MP2, MP3, MP4, ...) by expanding the correlation energy in orders of perturbation.
