We prove that, in the large-dimension limit, the high-density correlation energy $\Ec$ of two opposite-spin electrons confined in a $D$-dimensional space and interacting {\em via} a Coulomb potential is given by $\Ec \sim -1/(8D^2)$ for any…

The exchange and correlation $E_{xc}$ of strongly correlated electrons in 2D layers of finite width are studied as a function of the density parameter $r_s$, spin-polarization $\zeta$ and the temperature $T$. We explicitly treat…
