We prove the existence of minimizers for Hartree-Fock-Bogoliubov (HFB) energy functionals with attractive two-body interactions given by Newtonian gravity. This class of HFB functionals serves as model problem for self-gravitating…
A central focus of Ginzburg-Landau theory is the understanding and characterization of vortex configurations. On a bounded domain $\Omega\subseteq \mathbb{R}^2,$ global minimizers, and critical states in general, of the corresponding energy…
The Hartree-Fock problem was recently recast as a semidefinite optimization over the space of rank-constrained two-body reduced-density matrices (RDMs) [Phys. Rev. A 89, 010502(R) (2014)]. This formulation of the problem transfers the…
Within the constrained Hartree-Fock (CHF) theory, an analytic condition is derived to estimate whether a concept of the self-consistent mean field is realized or not in level repulsive region. The derived condition states that an iterative…
Background: The Hartree-Fock mean-field approximation is standard in combination with energy density functionals (EDF) that account for some dynamical correlations. Breaking and restoring the symmetries of the system allow for the inclusion…
The spherical Hartree-Fock approximation is applied to the $abinitio$ no-core shell model, with a realistic effective nucleon-nucleon interaction in order to investigate the range of its utility. Hartree-Fock results for binding energies,…

We consider the problem of finding a minimizer $u$ in $ H^1(\mathbb{R}^3)$ for the Hartree energy functional with convolution potential $w$ in $L^\infty(\mathbb{R}^3)+L^{3/2,\infty}(\mathbb{R}^3)$ with $L^\infty$ part vanishing at infinity.…

We show that the standard textbook description of (restricted) Hartree--Fock theory for (Fermi) Hubbard-like models is in need of an update, and we present such an update allowing us to correct basic and established results in the condensed…
