Fock space and the Brillouin condition

Hi there! in a recent lecture on fock space, i was given the brillouin condition for two-particle operators:-

<\Phi_{0}|a^{†}_{a}a_{r}h|\Phi_{0}>= \frac{1}{2}\sum\sum<\Phi_{0}|a^{†}_{a}a_{r}a^{†}_{\lambda}a^{†}_{\mu}a_{\lambda&#039;}a_{\mu&#039;}|\Phi_{0}><\lambda\mu|g|\mu&#039;\lambda&#039;><br /> <br /> = \sum[<rb|g|ab>-<rb|g|ba>]

where h is the single particle hamiltonian, and g is the two body operator.

i'm just not quite sure of the proof of this. the textbook for this subject is sakurai's modern quantum mechanics, and it doesn't really cover fock space, so any help pointing me in a direction to look into this a bit more would be greatly appreciated :)

Try to express the full hamiltonian in terms of h and g.

If we release an electron around a positively charged sphere, the initial state of electron is a linear combination of Hydrogen-like states. According to quantum mechanics, evolution of time would not change this initial state because the potential is time independent. However, classically we expect the electron to collide with the sphere. So, it seems that the quantum and classics predict different behaviours!
