We study the stability of the ordinary Landau Fermi liquid phase for interacting, spinless electrons. We require causality and demand that the Pauli principle be obeyed. We find a phase diagram determined by two parameters: the particle…
Laser cooled and trapped ions can crystallize and feature discrete solitons, that are nonlinear, topologically-protected configurations of the Coulomb crystal. Such solitons, as their continuum counterparts, can move within the crystal,…

We give a brief overview of recent studies of weakly bound homonuclear molecules in ultracold two-component Fermi gases. It is emphasized that they represent novel composite bosons, which exhibit features of Fermi statistics at short…
Modeling the Pauli energy, the contribution to the kinetic energy caused by Pauli statistics, without using orbitals is the open problem of orbital-free density functional theory. An important aspect of this problem is correctly reproducing…
Analyzing the exchange energy of two conduction electrons in a crystal we find that the exchange energy may be negative and, thus, a singlet state may be favorable. A full overlap in real space of wave functions of two conduction electrons…
Isomerization, i.e. the rearrangement between distinct molecular configurations, is a fundamental process in chemistry. Here we demonstrate that two-dimensional Coulomb crystals can emulate molecular isomerization and be used to…

Pauli-Blocking effect on the kinetic term is investigated by employing the quark cluster model. The effect can be understood by the change of the degrees of the mixing between the incoming wave and the 0$\ell$ state of the inter-cluster…
The modern state of the Pauli Exclusion Principle (PEP) is discussed. PEP can be considered from two viewpoints. On the one hand, it asserts that particles with half-integer spin (fermions) are described by antisymmetric wave functions, and…
The properties of a balanced two-component Fermi gas in a one-dimensional harmonic trap are studied by means of the coupled cluster method. For few fermions we recover the results of exact diagonalization, yet with this method we are able…
We investigate the structural properties and melting behavior of two-dimensional ion crystals in an RF trap, focusing on the effects of ion temperature and trap potential symmetry. We identify distinct crystal structures that form under…
While the linear radiofrequency trap finds various applications in high-precision spectroscopy and quantum information, its higher-order cousin, the linear multipole trap, is almost exclusively employed in physical chemistry. Recently,…
A new bosonic, excitonic method for interacting electrons is developed. For two-dimensional electron liquid, it reveals a noncompensated quantum crystal phase ranging from the high density, or vanishing Coulomb interaction, limit: $r_s=0$,…
In view of ongoing experiments to trap ultracold spin-polarized $^6$Li, we study various properties of an interacting Fermi gas in a harmonic trap taking the discrete nature of the unperturbed harmonic trap levels into account exactly. As…
Finite systems in confining potentials are known to undergo structural transitions similar to phase transitions. However, these systems are inhomogeneous, and their "melting" point may depend on the position in the trap and vary with the…
A mesoscopic system of indirect dipolar bosons trapped by a harmonic potential is considered. The system has a number of physical realizations including dipole excitons, atoms with large dipolar moment, polar molecules, Rydberg atoms in…
We design fast protocols to separate or recombine two ions in a segmented Paul trap. By inverse engineering the time evolution of the trapping potential composed of a harmonic and a quartic term, it is possible to perform these processes in…
We show that the thermodynamics of $N$ identical fermions maps onto that of distinguishable particles governed by a collective statistical potential -- the microscopic origin of degeneracy pressure. Known to be purely repulsive for ${N=2}$,…
Quantum simulations of complex fermionic systems suffer from a variety of challenging problems. In an effort to circumvent these challenges, simpler ``semi-classical'' approaches have been used to mimic fermionic correlations through a…
