The statistics of energy levels of electrons in a random potential is considered in the critical energy window near the mobility edge. It is shown that the multifractality of critical wave functions results in the violation of the…
We study the conductivity in itinerant-electron systems near to a magnetic quantum critical point. We show that, for a class of geometries, the universal power-law dependence of resistivity upon temperature may be reflected in a universal…
In this work, the calculation of complexity on atomic systems is considered. In order to unveil the increasing of this statistical magnitude with the atomic number due to the relativistic effects, recently reported in [A. Borgoo, F. De…
We consider free electrons in rectangular quantum dots, with either hard wall boundary conditions or anharmonic confinement. In both cases, due to finite size effects, a homogeneous electric field applied along one of the rectangular axis…
In [GW09a] we conjectured that uniformity of degree $k-1$ is sufficient to control an average over a family of linear forms if and only if the $k$th powers of these linear forms are linearly independent. In this paper we prove this…
Approximations to the exact density functional for the exchange-correlation energy of a many-electron ground state can be constructed by satisfying constraints that are universal, i.e., valid for all electron densities. Gedanken densities…
In a previous work one of the authors proposed a simple model for studying systems under pressure based on the Thomas-Fermi (TF) model of single atom. In this work we intend to extend the previous work to more general Thomas-Fermi models…
Many methods for computing electronic correlation effects at finite temperature are related to many-body perturbation theory in the grand-canonical ensemble. In most applications, however, the average number of electrons is known rather…
We present a new semi-classical theory for describing pairing in finite Fermi systems. It is based in taking the $\hbar \to 0$, i.e. Thomas-Fermi, limit of the gap equation written in the basis of the mean field (weak coupling). In addition…
We suggest to include the density of electron charge explicitly in the electron potential of density functional theory, rather than implicitly via exchange-correlation functionals. The advantages of the approach are conceptual and…
This work introduces a sticky-charge wall model as a simple and intuitive representation of charge regulation. Implemented within the mean-field level of description, the model modifies the boundary conditions without affecting the…
It is notoriously difficult to make quantitative theoretical predictions of the superconducting $T_c$, either from first-principles or even from a knowledge of normal state properties. Ultimately, this reflects the fact that the energy…
We propose a relativistic one-parameter Hermitian theory for the Coulomb problem with an electric charge greater than 137. In the non-relativistic limit, the theory becomes identical to the Schr\"odinger-Coulomb problem for all Z. Moreover,…
We give an upper bound for the norm of the determinant of additively indecomposable, totally positive definite quadratic forms defined over the ring of integers of totally real number fields. We apply these results to find lower and upper…
In heavy atoms and molecules, on the distances $a \gg Z^{-1}$ from all of the nuclei (with a charge $Z_m$) we prove that $\rho_\Psi (x)$ is approximated in $L^p$-norm, by the Thomas-Fermi density.
The atomic cluster expansion (ACE) efficiently parameterizes complex energy surfaces of pure elements and alloys. Due to the local nature of the many-body basis, ACE is inherently local or semilocal for graph ACE. Here, we employ…
We discuss results of the most accurate to-date test of the low-energy electroweak sector of the standard model of elementary particles. Combining previous measurements with our high-precision calculations we extracted the weak charge of…
We investigate a semiclassical momentum density energy functional for atoms and show that it yields the same value as the well-known Thomas-Fermi functional. In fact, we show an explicit relation between the minimizers of the two…
The critical value of the atom-field coupling strength for a finite number of atoms is deter- mined by means of both, semiclassical and exact solutions. In the semiclassical approach we use a variational procedure with coherent and…
We calculate analytically the effective mass and the quasiparticle renormalization factor in an electron liquid with long-range Coulomb interactions between electrons in two and three dimensions in the leading order density expansion. We…
