We present lattice results for spin-1/2 fermions at unitarity, where the effective range of the interaction is zero and the scattering length is infinite. We measure the spatial coherence of difermion pairs for a system of 6, 10, 14, 18,…
Standard approximations for the exchange-correlation functional are known to deviate from linear dependence of the energy on the electron and spin numbers (in -space). Violation of this flat-plane condition underlies the failure of all…

We present a variational Monte Carlo study of a model one dimensional electron gas on the continuum, with long-range interaction (1/r decay). At low density the reduced dimensionality brings about pseudonodes of the many-body wavefunction,…
A remarkably long-lived spin plasmon may exist in two-dimensional electron liquids with imbalanced spin up and spin down population. Predictions for this interesting mode by Agarwal et al. [Phys. Rev. B 90, 155409 (2014)] are based on the…
