Abstract: There has been a very significarnt resurgence of interest in ab initio valence bond calculations recently. This is because the VBcalculation based on nonorthogonal basis can provide intuitive understanding about many very important phenomena in chemistry.

Key words: Valence bond theory, N-factorial problem, Group theory
