Energy functionals of single-particle densities: A unified view

Quantum Gases 2023-04-12 v2 Quantum Physics

Abstract

Density functional theory is usually formulated in terms of the density in configuration space. Functionals of the momentum-space density have also been studied, and yet other densities could be considered. We offer a unified view from a second-quantized perspective and introduce a version of density functional theory that treats all single-particle contributions to the energy exactly. An appendix deals with semiclassical eigenvalues.
