It is shown that under mild conditions, Benjamini-Schramm convergence of lattices in locally compact groups is equivalent to spectral convergence. Next both notions are extended to the relative case and are then expressed in terms of…

We consider a one-dimensional symmetric Levy process that has local time. In the first part, we construct a self-adjoint extension of the generator of the process so that the constructed operator corresponds to the generator with the delta…

A method is introduced to renormalize the zero-range interaction for use in mean-field and many-body theory, starting from two-body calculations. The density-renormalized delta-function interaction is then applied using mean-field theory to…

Using the semiclassical neutral atom theory, we extend to fourth order the modified gradient expansion of the exchange energy of density functional theory. This expansion can be applied both to large atoms and solid-state problems.…

In this paper we prove a criterion of convergence in distribution in Skorokhod space. We apply this criterion to some special Levy processes and obtain almost-sure versions of limit theorems for these processes.

In the well-known Kohn-Sham theory in Density Functional Theory, a fictitious non-interacting system is introduced that has the same particle density as a system of $N$ electrons subjected to mutual Coulomb repulsion and an external…

Associated to every group with a weak spherical Tits system of rank n+1 with an appropriate rank n subgroup, we construct a relative spectral sequence involving group homology of Levi subgroups of both groups. Using the fact that such Levi…

Exact density-functional theory is reconstructed here from its convex variational structure as two parallel exact ensemble hierarchies: an interacting hierarchy rooted in Lieb's ensemble formulation and a noninteracting hierarchy rooted in…

We prove an analogue of the Lieb--Thirring inequality for many-body quantum systems with the kinetic operator $\sum_i (-\Delta_i)^s$ and the interaction potential of the form $\sum_i \delta_i^{-2s}$ where $\delta_i$ is the nearest-neighbor…

We prove a nonlinear variant of the general Brascamp-Lieb inequality. Instances of this inequality are quite prevalent in analysis, and we illustrate this with substantial applications in harmonic analysis and partial differential…

An overview of several recent developments in density functional theory for classical inhomogeneous liquids is given. We show how Levy's constrained search method can be used to derive the variational principle that underlies density…

We extend the duality principle for the $\Gamma$-convergence of convex lower semicontinuous functions, which was previously established only in separable reflexive Banach spaces, to the broader class of weakly compactly generated (WCG)…

Fermi liquid theory works very well in most normal metals, but is found violated in many strongly correlated electron systems, such as cuprate and heavy-fermion superconductors. A widely accepted criterion is that, the Fermi liquid theory…

In this article we consider the Levy processes and the corresponding semigroup. We represent the generator of this semigroup in a convolution form. Using the obtained convolution form and the theory of integral equations we investigate the…

Given a bounded open set $\Omega\subset \mathbb{R}^n$, we study sequences of quadratic functionals on the Sobolev space $H^1_0(\Omega)$, perturbed by sequences of bounded linear functionals. We prove that their $\Gamma$-limits, in the weak…

We consider the family of non-local and non-convex functionals introduced by H. Brezis and H.-M. Nguyen in a recent paper. These functionals Gamma-converge to a multiple of the Sobolev norm or the total variation, depending on a summability…

A Thomas-Fermi-Weizsaecker type theory is constructed, by means of which we are able to give a relatively simple proof of the stability of relativistic matter. Our procedure has the advantage over previous ones in that the critical value of…

We study the non-uniform nuclear matter using the self-consistent Thomas--Fermi approximation with a relativistic mean-field model. The non-uniform matter is assumed to be composed of a lattice of heavy nuclei surrounded by dripped…

A famous conjecture of Keating and Snaith asserts that central values of $L$-functions in a given family admit a log-normal distribution with a prescribed mean and variance depending on the symmetry type of the family. Based on a recent…

This note provides a succinct proof of a 1973 theorem of Lieb that establishes the concavity of a certain trace function. The development relies on a deep result from quantum information theory, the joint convexity of quantum relative…
