Summary: Hartree-Fock theory in quantum mechanics is reviewed, from the proposal of the Hartree-Fock approximation right after quantum mechanics was formulated, to its applications in modern physics. This includes a description of traditional Hartree-Fock theory in quantum chemistry, its generalizations of various kinds, and its importance for predicting the presence of symmetry breaking, or the absence thereof. For the entire collection see [Zbl 1491.46002].
