We present the key aspects of the theoretical foundations of the Higher Tamm–Dancoff Approximation which can be interpreted as a truncated shell-model approach based on a Hartree–Fock solution, ensuring the conservation of the particle number. Then we discuss some phenomenological aspects of the residual interactions used, namely the delta interaction to describe the neutron–neutron and proton–proton pairing correlations and the quadrupole–quadrupole interaction to describe vibrational correlations.

We review the rôle played by renormalization, particle-number symmetry breaking, Goldstone bosons and the renormalization group in a mathematically rigorous construction of many-Fermion models at temperature zero.
