Extending on ideas of Lewin, Lieb and Seiringer (Phys Rev B, 100, 035127, (2019)) we present a modified "floating crystal" trial state for Jellium (also known as the classical homogeneous electron gas) with density equal to a characteristic…
We consider a one-dimensional classical Wigner jellium, not necessarily charge neutral, for which the electrons are allowed to exist beyond the support of the background charge. The model can be seen as a one-dimensional Coulomb gas in…
A systematic first-principle study is performed to calculate the lattice parameters, electronic structure, and thermodynamic properties of UN using the local-density approximation (LDA)+\emph{U} and the generalized gradient approximation…
We perform a systematic study of the thermodynamics of quantum gases in the unitarity limit. Our study makes use of a "Universality Hypothesis" for the relevant energy scales of a many-body system at unitarity. This Hypothesis is supported…
The density of states and the Hall conductivity of a two-dimensional electron gas in a uniform magnetic field and in the presence of a delta impurity are exactly calculated using elementary field theoretic techniques. Although these results…
It is shown that in adiabatic approximation for nuclei the many-component Coulomb system cannot be described on the basis of the grand canonical ensemble. Using the variational Bogolyubov's procedure for the free energy, the Hohenberg-Kohn…
We present numerically exact solutions to the full-dimensional Schrodinger Equation for the few-electron gas (few-EG) model of electronic structure theory. Our core methodology uses a Sum-of-Products (SOP) representation of singular…
A simple optimization scheme is used to compute the density-density response function of an electron liquid. Higher order terms in the perturbation expansion beyond the random phase approximation are summed approximately by enforcing the…
Most treatments of electron-electron correlations in dense plasmas either ignore them entirely (random phase approximation) or neglect the role of ions (jellium approximation). In this work, we go beyond both these approximations to derive…
We consider a gas of weakly interacting bosons in three dimensions subject to an external potential in the mean field regime. Assuming that the initial state of our system is a product state, we show that in the trace topology of one-body…
We report extensive self-consistent calculations of jellium surface energies, by going beyond the local-density approximation. The density-response function of a bounded free-electron gas is evaluated within the random-phase approximation,…
The nanofabrication technology has taught us that an $m$-dimensional confining potential imposed upon an $n$-dimensional electron gas paves the way to a quasi-($n-m$)-dimensional electron gas, with $m \le n$ and $1\le n, m \le 3$. This is…
We resolve the long-standing controversy over the surface energy of simple metals: Density functional methods that require uniform-electron-gas input agree with each other at many levels of sophistication, but not with high-level correlated…
An approximation for the exchange-correlation energy of reduced-density-matrix-functional theory was recently derived from a study of the homogeneous electron gas (N.N. Lathiotakis, N. Helbig, E.K.U. Gross, Phys. Rev. B 75, 195120 (2007)).…
We describe the process of electron condensation into a localized state in a structureless jellium that is coupled to a finite cavity. It is shown that there exists a temperature T_0 below which electrons within the jellium localize. This…
A few approximate schemes to solve the Hedin equations self-consistently introduced in (Phys. Rev. B 94, 155101 (2016)) are explored and tested for the 3D electron gas at metallic densities. We calculate one electron spectra, dielectric…
Motivated by recent suggestions --to split the electron-electron interaction into a short-range part, to be treated within the density functional theory, and a long-range part, to be handled by other techniques-- we compute, with a…
We modify the "floating crystal" trial state for the classical Homogeneous Electron Gas (also known as Jellium), in order to suppress the boundary charge fluctuations that are known to lead to a macroscopic increase of the energy. The…
The functional-renormalization-group aided density-functional theory (FRG-DFT) is applied to the two-dimensional homogeneous electron gas (2DHEG). The correlation energy of the 2DHEG is derived as a function of the Wigner-Seitz radius $…
Two- and three-dimensional electron gases with a uniform neutralizing background are studied at negative compressibility. Parametrized expressions for the dielectric function are used to access this strong-coupling regime, where the…
