The calculations of nuclear matrix elements, corresponding to nuclear double beta decay transitions, rely upon several approximations. The impact of these approximations upon final estimations of the nuclear matrix elements is illustrated. We pay attention to mean field (symmetry violations) and to approximate diagonalizations (pn-QRPA, renormalized pn-QRPA and fully renormalized pn-QRPA)
