Linear programming is used as a standard tool for optimising unit commitment or power flows in energy supply systems. For heat supply systems, however, it faces a relevant limitation: For them, energy yield depends on the output…

We report the bulk and surface properties of lithium computed within a full potential LCGTO formalism using both density functional theory and the Hartree-Fock approximation. We examine the convergence of computed properties with respect to…
The familiar unrestricted Hartree-Fock variational principle is generalized to include quasi-free states. As we show, these are in one-to-one correspondence with the one-particle density matrices and these, in turn provide a convenient…
We prove by means of a renormalization group method that in weakly interacting many-electron systems at half-filling on a periodic hyper-cubic lattice, the free energy density uniformly converges to an analytic function of the coupling…
In this paper we review the semiclassical extended Thomas-Fermi theory for describing the ground-state properties of nuclei. The binding energies calculated in this approach do not contain shell effects and, in this sense, they are…

We prove a nontrivial circuit-depth lower bound for preparing a low-energy state of a locally interacting quantum many-body system in two dimensions, assuming the circuit is geometrically local. For preparing any state which has an energy…
