Building on the discussion in PRA 93, 042510 (2016), we present a systematic derivation of gradient corrections to the kinetic-energy functional and the one-particle density, in particular for two-dimensional systems. We derive the leading…
A mathematical framework is constructed for the sum of the lowest N eigenvalues of a potential. Exactness is illustrated on several model systems (harmonic oscillator, particle in a box, and Poschl-Teller well). Its order-by-order…
Shell effects reflects irregularities of physical quantities caused by a discrete energy spectrum. The theory of the shell effects by Kirzhnits and Shpatakovskaya is valid only at relatively low densities providing for oscillations of…

We review the non-relativistic Green's-function approach to the kinetic equations for Fermi liquids far from equilibrium. The emphasis is on the consistent treatment of the off-shell motion between collisions and on the non-instant and…
The gradient expansion of the kinetic energy functional, when applied for atoms or finite systems, usually grossly overestimates the energy in the fourth order and generally diverges in the sixth order. We avoid the divergence of the…
Polymer self-consistent field theory techniques are used to derive quantum density functional theory without the use of the theorems of density functional theory. Instead, a free energy is obtained from a partition function that is…

Within the framework of density functional theory, we present a study of approximations to the enhancement factor of the non-interacting kinetic energy functional $T_s[\rho]$. For this purpose, we employ the model of Liu and Parr [S. Liu…
This work presents an alternative, general, and in-principle exact extension of electronic Kohn-Sham density functional theory (KS-DFT) to the fully quantum-mechanical molecular problem. Unlike in existing multi-component or…
A recently introduced analytical model for the nuclear density profile[1] is implemented in the Extended Thomas-Fermi (ETF) energy density functional. This allows to (i) shed a new light on the issue of the sign of surface symmetry energy…
A new form of the Cunningham correction factor is presented that requires no experimental fitting. It is expanded to provide a predictive heuristic for non-spherical particles, via definition of a "correction tensor''. Its accuracy is…
Transport properties of asymmetric molecular structure are studied within the kinetic equation approach, taking into consideration the electron interaction in the self-consistent manner (SCF procedure). The device is made of a molecule…
We derive a non-empirical, orbital-free density functional for the total energy of interacting electrons in two dimensions. The functional consists of a local formula for the interaction energy, where we follow the lines introduced by Parr…
The Thomas-Fermi approximation is a powerful method that has been widely used to describe atomic structures, finite nuclei, and nonuniform matter in supernovae and neutron-star crusts. Nonuniform nuclear matter at subnuclear density is…
