The Ornstein-Zernike relation (OZ) integral equation is

Failed to parse (SVG (MathML can be enabled via browser plugin): Invalid response ("Math extension cannot connect to Restbase.") from server "https://wikimedia.org/api/rest_v1/":): {\displaystyle h=h\left[c\right]}

where Failed to parse (SVG (MathML can be enabled via browser plugin): Invalid response ("Math extension cannot connect to Restbase.") from server "https://wikimedia.org/api/rest_v1/":): {\displaystyle h[c]} denotes a functional of Failed to parse (SVG (MathML can be enabled via browser plugin): Invalid response ("Math extension cannot connect to Restbase.") from server "https://wikimedia.org/api/rest_v1/":): {\displaystyle c} . This relation is exact. This is complemented by the closure relation

Failed to parse (SVG (MathML can be enabled via browser plugin): Invalid response ("Math extension cannot connect to Restbase.") from server "https://wikimedia.org/api/rest_v1/":): {\displaystyle c=c\left[h\right]}

Note that Failed to parse (SVG (MathML can be enabled via browser plugin): Invalid response ("Math extension cannot connect to Restbase.") from server "https://wikimedia.org/api/rest_v1/":): {\displaystyle h} depends on Failed to parse (SVG (MathML can be enabled via browser plugin): Invalid response ("Math extension cannot connect to Restbase.") from server "https://wikimedia.org/api/rest_v1/":): {\displaystyle c} , and Failed to parse (SVG (MathML can be enabled via browser plugin): Invalid response ("Math extension cannot connect to Restbase.") from server "https://wikimedia.org/api/rest_v1/":): {\displaystyle c} depends on Failed to parse (SVG (MathML can be enabled via browser plugin): Invalid response ("Math extension cannot connect to Restbase.") from server "https://wikimedia.org/api/rest_v1/":): {\displaystyle h} . Because of this Failed to parse (SVG (MathML can be enabled via browser plugin): Invalid response ("Math extension cannot connect to Restbase.") from server "https://wikimedia.org/api/rest_v1/":): {\displaystyle h} must be determined self-consistently. This need for self-consistency is characteristic of all many-body problems. (Hansen \& McDonald \S 5.2 p. 106) For a system in an external field, the OZ has the form (5.2.7)

Failed to parse (SVG (MathML can be enabled via browser plugin): Invalid response ("Math extension cannot connect to Restbase.") from server "https://wikimedia.org/api/rest_v1/":): {\displaystyle h(1,2) = c(1,2) + \int \rho^{(1)}(3) c(1,3)h(3,2) d3}

If the system is both homogeneous and isotropic, the OZ relation becomes (Ref. 1Eq. 6)

Failed to parse (SVG (MathML can be enabled via browser plugin): Invalid response ("Math extension cannot connect to Restbase.") from server "https://wikimedia.org/api/rest_v1/":): {\displaystyle \gamma (r) \equiv h(r) - c(r) = \rho \int h(r')~c(|r - r'|) dr'} In words, this equation (Hansen \& McDonald \S 5.2 p. 107)

``...describes the fact that the total correlation between particles 1 and 2, represented by Failed to parse (SVG (MathML can be enabled via browser plugin): Invalid response ("Math extension cannot connect to Restbase.") from server "https://wikimedia.org/api/rest_v1/":): {\displaystyle h(1,2)}
, 
is due in part to the direct correlation between 1 and 2, represented by Failed to parse (SVG (MathML can be enabled via browser plugin): Invalid response ("Math extension cannot connect to Restbase.") from server "https://wikimedia.org/api/rest_v1/":): {\displaystyle c(1,2)}
, but also to the indirect correlation,  
Failed to parse (SVG (MathML can be enabled via browser plugin): Invalid response ("Math extension cannot connect to Restbase.") from server "https://wikimedia.org/api/rest_v1/":): {\displaystyle \gamma (r)} , propagated via increasingly large numbers of intermediate particles."

Notice that this equation is basically a convolution, i.e.

Failed to parse (SVG (MathML can be enabled via browser plugin): Invalid response ("Math extension cannot connect to Restbase.") from server "https://wikimedia.org/api/rest_v1/":): {\displaystyle h \equiv c + \rho h\otimes c }

(Note: the convolution operation written here as Failed to parse (SVG (MathML can be enabled via browser plugin): Invalid response ("Math extension cannot connect to Restbase.") from server "https://wikimedia.org/api/rest_v1/":): {\displaystyle \otimes} is more frequently written as Failed to parse (SVG (MathML can be enabled via browser plugin): Invalid response ("Math extension cannot connect to Restbase.") from server "https://wikimedia.org/api/rest_v1/":): {\displaystyle *} ) This can be seen by expanding the integral in terms of Failed to parse (SVG (MathML can be enabled via browser plugin): Invalid response ("Math extension cannot connect to Restbase.") from server "https://wikimedia.org/api/rest_v1/":): {\displaystyle h(r)} (here truncated at the fourth iteration):

Failed to parse (SVG (MathML can be enabled via browser plugin): Invalid response ("Math extension cannot connect to Restbase.") from server "https://wikimedia.org/api/rest_v1/":): {\displaystyle h(r) = c(r) + \rho \int c(|r - r'|) c(r') dr' + \rho^2 \int \int c(|r - r'|) c(|r' - r''|) c(r'') dr''dr' + \rho^3 \int\int\int c(|r - r'|) c(|r' - r''|) c(|r'' - r'''|) c(r''') dr'''dr''dr' + \rho^4 \int \int\int\int c(|r - r'|) c(|r' - r''|) c(|r'' - r'''|) c(|r''' - r''''|) h(r'''') dr'''' dr'''dr''dr'}

etc. Diagrammatically this expression can be written as (Ref. 2):

where the bold lines connecting root points denote Failed to parse (SVG (MathML can be enabled via browser plugin): Invalid response ("Math extension cannot connect to Restbase.") from server "https://wikimedia.org/api/rest_v1/":): {\displaystyle c} functions, the blobs denote Failed to parse (SVG (MathML can be enabled via browser plugin): Invalid response ("Math extension cannot connect to Restbase.") from server "https://wikimedia.org/api/rest_v1/":): {\displaystyle h} functions. An arrow pointing from left to right indicates an uphill path from one root point to another. An `uphill path' is a sequence of Mayer bonds passing through increasing particle labels. The OZ relation can be derived by performing a functional differentiation of the grand canonical distribution function (HM check this).
