Quasi-two-dimensional (2D) systems, such as an electron gas confined in a quantum well, are important model systems for many-body theories. Earlier studies of the crossover from 3D to 2D in ground-state density-functional theory showed that…

Current-density-functional theory is used to perturbatively calculate single-particle energies of open-shell atoms prepared in a current-carrying state. We focus on the highest occupied such energy, because its negative is, in principle,…
