The energy density is computed for a U(2) Chern-Simons theory coupled to a non-relativistic fermion field (a theory of ``non-Abelian anyons'') under the assumptions of uniform charge and matter density. When the matter field is a spinless…

We study Density Functional Theory models for systems which are translationally invariant in some directions, such as a homogeneous 2-d slab in the 3-d space. We show how the different terms of the energy are modified and we derive reduced…
The recently developed "internal" Density Functional Theory provides an existence theorem for a local potential that contains the center-of-mass correlations effects. The knowledge of the corresponding energy functional would provide a much…
