Implicit and explicit density functionals for the exchange energy in finite two-dimensional systems are developed following the approach of Becke and Roussel [Phys. Rev. A 39, 3761 (1989)]. Excellent agreement for the exchange-hole…
We consider free electrons in rectangular quantum dots, with either hard wall boundary conditions or anharmonic confinement. In both cases, due to finite size effects, a homogeneous electric field applied along one of the rectangular axis…
Using the Wentzel-Kramers-Brillouin method, we derive a modified form of the Thomas-Fermi approximation to electron density. This new result enables us to calculate the details of the self-consistent ion cores, as well as the ionization…
In the article an ultracold electron-ion plasma created by photoionization of cooled atoms is investigated. We obtained analitical expressions for non-ideality parameters which establish due to correlation heating. In the work the nearest…
Exchange-correlation potentials vxc and energy densities exc are derived for integer and fractional electron counts using an orbital-averaged Kohn-Sham inversion procedure. The reference densities for inversion come from full configuration…

The resonant interaction of relativistic electrons and whistler waves is an important mechanism of electron acceleration and scattering in the Earth radiation belts and other space plasma systems. For low amplitude waves, such an…
We introduce a new paradigm for one-dimensional uniform electron gases (UEGs). In this model, $n$ electrons are confined to a ring and interact via a bare Coulomb operator. We use Rayleigh-Schr\"odinger perturbation theory to show that, in…
The superconducting proximity effect on two-dimensional massless Dirac electrons is usually analyzed using a simple model consisting of the Dirac Hamiltonian and an energy-independent pair potential. Although this conventional model is…
Ground and excited states of a confined negative Hydrogen ion has been pursued under Kohn-Sham density functional approach by invoking a physically motivated work-function-based exchange potential. The exchange-only results are of near…
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…
Strong correlation effects, such as a dramatic increase in the effective mass of the carriers of electricity, recently observed in the low density electron gas have provided spectacular support for the existence of a sharp metal-insulator…
We present a new model describing strongly correlated electrons on a general $d$-dimensional lattice. It differs from the Hubbard model by interactions of nearest neighbours, and it contains the $t$-$J$ model as a special case. The model…
We analyze theoretically THz response of an electron-hole pair confined in a semiconductor nanoparticle. We show that the interplay of particle confinement and electron-hole Coulomb interaction leads to significant renormalizations and…
The ground state energy of the two--dimensional uniform electron gas has been calculated with fixed--node diffusion Monte Carlo, including backflow correlations, for a wide range of electron densities as a function of spin polarization. We…
Employing a local formula for the electron-electron interaction energy, we derive a self-consistent approximation for the total energy of a general $N$-electron system. Our scheme works as a local variant of the Thomas-Fermi approximation…
The combination of density-functional theory with other approaches to the many-electron problem through the separation of the electron-electron interaction into a short-range and a long-range contribution (range separation) is a successful…
We find the numerically exact partition potential for 1-D systems of interacting electrons designed to model diatomic molecules. At integer fragment occupations, the kinetic contribution to the partition potential develops sharp features in…
