By definition:

The wave function of the many-particle system satisfies the following Schrödinger equation:

If we substitute and into formula , we obtain

or, taking the sum over ,

Let us now consider terms for which In these cases, we may use Gauss' Theorem, along with the requirement that for all to show that these terms must vanish. Therefore,
