We prove that the electronic density of atomic and molecular eigenfunctions is smooth away from the nuclei. The result is proved without decay assumptions on the eigenfunctions.
We investigate properties of the spherically averaged atomic one-electron density rho~(r). For a rho~ which stems from a physical ground state we prove that rho~ > 0. We also give exponentially decreasing lower bounds to rho~ in the case…
We derive an upper estimate for electronic density $\rho_\Psi (x)$ in heavy atoms and molecules. While not sharp, on the distances $\gtrsim Z^{-1}$ from the nuclei it is still better than the known estimate $CZ^3$ ($Z$ is the total charge…
Different kinds of averaging of the wavefunctions/densities of the two-electron atomic systems are investigated. Using the Pekeris-like method, the ground state wave functions $\Psi$ of the helium-like atoms with nucleus charge $1\leq…

We consider a pseudorelativistic model of atoms and molecules, where the kinetic energy of the electrons is given by $\sqrt{p^2+m^2}-m$. In this model the eigenfunctions are generally not even bounded, however, we prove that the…
We prove that the electronic densities of atomic and molecular eigenfunctions are real analytic in ${\mathbb R}^3$ away from the nuclei.

The density of an atom in a state of well-defined angular momentum has a specific finite spherical harmonic content, without and with interactions. Approximate single-particle schemes, such as the Hartree, Hartree-Fock, and Local Density…

We investigate regularity properties of molecular one-electron densities rho near the nuclei. In particular we derive a representation rho(x)=mu(x)*(e^F(x)) with an explicit function F, only depending on the nuclear charges and the…
Standing light waves structure the electronic density of a Rydberg atom in a rich but surprisingly systematic fashion. We uncover these systematics, which are nearly universal across a large range of principal quantum numbers n, by varying…
Relations between particle and wave properties for charge carriers in periodic potentials of crystalline metals and semiconductors are derived. The particle aspects of electrons and holes in periodic potentials are considered using…
Lower bound for ${\bar \rho}''(0)$, the second derivative of the spherically averaged atomic electronic density at the nucleus, and upper bound for ${\bar \rho}'''(0)$, the third derivative, are obtained respectively. It is shown that, for…
Schrodinger's equation predicts something very peculiar about the electron in the Hydrogen atom: its total energy must be equal to zero. Unfortunately, an analysis of a zero-energy wavefunction for the electron in the Hydrogen atom has not…
