Abstract
We consider a system of nonlinear coupled equations involving magnetic Schrödinger operators and general potentials. We provide the criteria for the existence of multiple solutions to these equations. As special cases we get the classical results on existence of infinitely many distinct solutions within Hartree and Hartree-Fock theory of atoms and molecules subject to an external magnetic fields. We also extend recent results within this theory, including Coulomb system with a constant magnetic field, a decreasing magnetic field and a "physically measurable" magnetic field.
