The Hartree-Fock-Bogoliubov (HFB) theory, a well-known method used in non-relativistic nuclear physics, has been applied in the framework of a relativistic quantum field theory. It allows to treat the particle-hole and the particle-particle channel of nuclear systems on an equal footing. As applications, a relativistic theory of pairing has been used to investigate pairing correlations in nuclear matter and in finite nuclei. Moreover, a relativistic Hartree-Fock theory has been used to study the role of the Fock terms of a one-meson exchange interaction on the spin-orbit properties of exotic nuclei.
