The Hohenberg-Kohn theorem and the Kohn-Sham equations, which are at the basis of the Density Functional Theory, are reformulated in terms of a particular many-body density, which is translational invariant and therefore is relevant for…
We formulate an extension of the Debye-Hueckel-Bjerrum theory [M. E. Fisher and Y. Levin, Phys. Rev. Lett. 71, 3826 (1993)] to the fluid state of a highly asymmetric charged colloid. Allowing for the formation of clusters consisting of one…

In this short note, we provide the well-posedness for an hyperbolic-hyperbolic-elliptic system of PDEs describing the motion of collision free-plasma in magnetic fields. The proof combines a pointwise estimate together with a bootstrap type…
Stochastic electrodynamics is a classical theory which assumes that the physical vacuum consists of classical stochastic fields with average energy $\frac{1}{2}\hbar \omega$ in each mode, i.e., the zero-point Planck spectrum. While this…
