The random phase approximation (RPA) for the electron correlation energy, combined with the exact-exchange energy, represents the state-of-the-art exchange-correlation functional within density-functional theory (DFT). However, the standard…
The random phase approximation (RPA) for the correlation energy functional of density functional theory has recently attracted renewed interest. Formulated in terms of the Kohn-Sham (KS) orbitals and eigenvalues, it promises to resolve some…
We consider an effective quasi-bosonic Hamiltonian of the electron gas which emerges naturally from the random phase approximation and describes the collective excitations of the gas. By a rigorous argument, we explain how the plasmon modes…
A theory is developed for the evolution of the non-equilibrium distribution of quasiparticles when the scattering rate decreases due to particle collisions. We propose a "modified one-collision approximation" which is most effective for…
We develop the plasmon-pole approximation for an interacting electron gas confined in a semiconductor quantum wire. We argue that the plasmon-pole approximation becomes a more accurate approach in quantum wire systems than in higher…
The quasiparticle effective mass is a key quantity in the physics of electron gases, describing the renormalization of the electron mass due to electron-electron interactions. Two-dimensional electron gases are of fundamental importance in…
The random phase approximation (RPA) is exact for the exchange energy of a many-electron ground state, but RPA makes the correlation energy too negative by about 0.5 eV/electron. That large short-range error, which tends to cancel out of…
The correlation energy of the homogeneous electron gas is evaluated by solving the Bethe-Salpeter equation (BSE) beyond the Tamm-Dancoff approximation for the electronic polarisation propagator. The BSE is expected to improve upon the…
The direct random-phase approximation (dRPA) is used to calculate and compare atomization energies for the HEAT set and 10 selected molecules of the G2-1 set using both plane waves and Gaussian-type orbitals. We describe detailed procedures…
The self-consistent quasiparticle random-phase approximation (QRPA) approach is formulated in the canonical single-nucleon basis of the relativistic Hatree-Fock-Bogoliubov (RHFB) theory. This approach is applied to study the isobaric analog…
Motivated by a number of recent experimental studies we have revisited the problem of the microscopic calculation of the quasiparticle self-energy and many-body effective mass enhancement in a two-dimensional electron liquid. Our systematic…
In this work we continue and extend our recent work on the correlation energy of the quantized electron gas of uniform density at temperature $T=0$. As before we utilize the methods, properties, and results obtained by means of classical…
In this work, we consider the particle-hole random phase approximation (phRPA), an approximation to the correlation energy in electronic structure, and show that the phRPA energy of the H2 molecule correctly dissociates. That is, as the…
A microscopic model aimed at the description of charge-exchange nuclear excitations along isotopic chains which include open-shell systems, is developed. It consists of quasiparticle random phase approximation (QRPA) made on top of…
We present an analytic theory of the pair distribution function and the ground-state energy in a two-dimensional (2D) electron gas with an arbitrary degree of spin polarization. Our approach involves the solution of a zero-energy scattering…
The self-consistent random phase approximation (RPA) based on a correlated realistic nucleon-nucleon interaction is used to evaluate correlation energies in closed-shell nuclei beyond the Hartree-Fock level. The relevance of contributions…
Using the finite-temperature path integral Monte Carlo method, we investigate dilute, trapped Bose gases in a quasi-two dimensional geometry. The quantum particles have short-range, s-wave interactions described by a hard-sphere potential…
The random phase approximation (RPA) systematically overestimates the magnitude of the correlation energy and generally underestimates cohesive energies. This originates in part from the complete lack of exchange terms, which would…
We study the correlation energy associated with the pair fluctuations in BCS theory. We use a schematic two-level pairing model and discuss the behavior of the correlation energy across shell closures, including the even-odd differences. It…
The uniform electron gas and the hydrogen atom play fundamental roles in condensed matter physics and quantum chemistry. The former has an infinite number of electrons uniformly distributed over the neutralizing positively-charged…
