Abstract

The ring-diagram partial summation (or RPA) for the ground-state energy of the uniform electron gas (with the density parameter rsr_s) in its weak-correlation limit rs0r_s\to 0 is revisited. It is studied, which treatment of the self-energy Σ(k,ω)\Sigma(k,\omega) is in agreement with the Hugenholtz-van Hove (Luttinger-Ward) theorem μμ0=Σ(kF,μ)\mu-\mu_0= \Sigma(k_{\rm F},\mu) and which is not. The correlation part of the lhs h as the RPA asymptotics alnrs+a+O(rs)a\ln r_s +a'+O(r_s) [in atomic units]. The use of renormalized RPA diagrams for the rhs yields the similar expression alnrs+a+O(rs)a\ln r_s+a''+O(r_s) with the sum rule a=aa'= a'' resulting from three sum rules for the components of aa' and aa''. This includes in the second order of exchange the sum rule μ2x=Σ2x\mu_{2{\rm x}}=\Sigma_{2{\rm x}} [P. Ziesche, Ann. Phys. (Leipzig), 2006].
