The time-dependent variational principle for many-body trial states is used to discuss the relation between the approaches of dierent molecular dynamics models to describe indistinguishable fermions. Early attempts to include eects of the Pauli principle by means of nonlocal potentials as well as more recent models which work with antisymmetrized many-body states are reviewed under these premises.
