We review some topics in the theory of symmetric decreasing rearrangements with a particular focus on Lieb's fundamental contributions. Topics covered include the Brascamp--Lieb--Luttinger theorem, the sharp Young and…
Density functional theory together with the Kohn-Sham scheme represent an efficient framework to recover the ground state density and energy of a many-body quantum system from an auxiliary ``non-interacting'' system (one-body with a local…
In our comment we show that some of the very difficult problems have been successfully solved. We have to focus on the resolved problems, since the authors claims: Our hope, however, is that the topics we have presented will provide…
Universal properties of the Coulomb interaction energy apply to all many-electron systems. Bounds on the exchange-correlation energy, inparticular, are important for the construction of improved density functionals. Here we investigate one…
Quantum Electrodynamics may be formulated as a Quantum Field Theory , and also as relativistic quantum mechanics by introduction of the Feynman-Stueckelberg parameter. As stated by M. Srednicki ({\it Quantum Field Theory}, Cambridge…
Much progress has been made in the last few decades in developing the necessary mathematics for understanding the full implications of the quantum-mechanical many-body problem and why the material world appears to be as stable as it is…
The author suggests an approach based on the separation of total energy of multielectron systems into the semi-classical Coulomb part and the non-classical additional part. This approach allows on the one hand to simplify calculations and…

Central to our understanding of quantum many particle physics are two ideas due to Landau. The first is the notion of the electron as a well-defined quasiparticle excitation in the many body state. The second is that of the order parameter…
Electron-electron interactions and correlations form the basis of difficulties encountered in the theoretical solution of problems dealing with multi-electron systems. Accurate treatment of the electron-electron problem is likely to unravel…
The theory for electron transport in simple liquids developed by Cohen and Lekner is extended to simple liquid mixtures. The focus is on developing benchmark models for binary mixtures of hard-spheres, using the Percus-Yevick model to…
The nonrelativistic many-electron system in the forward, exchange and BCS approximation is considered. In this approximation, which is still quartic in the annihilation and creation operators, the model is explicitly solvable for arbitrary…
