So when combining atomic orbitals to form molecular orbitals, you can either add the wave functions or subtract them. But at the same time, orbitals can exist in opposite phases (say one lobe of the p orbital is '+' and the other '-'). So what happens when you subtract two 1s orbitals of opposite phase, is that the same thing as constructively interference of the wave functions?
