This contribution is devoted to the mathematical analysis of more or less sophisticated approximations of the time evolution of systems of N quantum particles. New results for the Multiconfiguration Time Dependent Hartree Fock (MCTDHF) method are summarized and compared with the simpler Hartree and Hartree Fock equations.
