Using the tight-binding model with long-range Coulomb interactions between electrons, we study some of the electronic properties of graphene. The Coulomb interactions are treated with the renormalized-ring-diagram approximation. By…
We study the Coulomb interactions in fullerene molecules within a continuum formalism. The model gives rise to a renormalizable field theory, which has many similarities to standard quantum electrodynamics. The effective electric charge at…
Structural and thermodynamic properties of ionic fluids are related to those of a simpler ``mimic'' system with short ranged intermolecular interactions in a spatially varying effective field by use of Local Molecular Field (LMF) theory,…
We use a mean-field (Hartree-like) approach to study the conductance of a strongly localized electron system in two dimensions. We find a crossover between a regime where Coulomb interactions modify the conductance significantly to a regime…
We propose a nonlocal theory of single-particle excitations. It is based on an off-diagonal effective medium and the projection operator method for treating the retarded Green function. The theory determines the nonlocal effective medium…
We introduce a new method for deriving the time-dependent Hartree or Hartree-Fock equations as an effective mean-field dynamics from the microscopic Schroedinger equation for fermionic many-particle systems in quantum mechanics. The method…
In this paper we continue the study of the derivation of different types of kinetic equations which arise from scaling limits of interacting particle systems. We began this study in \cite{NVW}. More precisely, we consider the derivation of…
Despite the many successes of the relativistic quantum theory developed by Horwitz, et. al., certain difficulties persist in the associated covariant classical mechanics. In this paper, we explore these difficulties through an examination…
We propose a simplified version of local molecular field (LMF) theory to treat Coulomb interactions in simulations of ionic fluids. LMF theory relies on splitting the Coulomb potential into a short-ranged part that combines with other…
We study equations for the mechanical movement of chains of identical particles in the plane interacting with their nearest-neighbors by bond stretching and by van der Waals and Coulomb forces. We find collinear and circular equilibria as…
An instantaneous and zero-range spin-dependent interaction, derived by summing an infinite number of electron-hole ladder diagrams within a local approximation, is analyzed as a function of the electron gas density and the relative spin…
We address the computation of physical observables in graphene in the presence of Coulomb interactions of density-density type modeled with a static Coulomb potential within a quantum field theory perturbative renormalization scheme. We…
The $\alpha$-proton Coulomb interaction is included in the description of $\alpha$-deuteron scattering using the screening and renormalization approach in the framework of momentum-space three-particle equations. The technical reliability…
The interaction force between likely charged particles/surfaces is usually repulsive due to the Coulomb interaction. However, the counterintuitive like-charge attraction in electrolytes has been frequently observed in experiments, which has…
An approach is proposed to calculate the direct reaction (DR) and fusion probabilities for heavy ion collisions at near-Coulomb-barrier energies as functions of the distance of closest approach D within the framework of the optical model…
We consider a screened Coulomb interaction between electrons in graphene and determine their dynamic response functions, such as a longitudinal and a transverse electric conductivity and a polarization function and compare them to the…
We report on numerical studies of the influence of Coulomb interactions on localization of electronic wavefunctions in a strong magnetic field. Interactions are treated in the Hartree-Fock approximation. Localization properties are studied…
The semiclassical Coulomb excitation interaction is at times expressed in the Lorentz gauge in terms of the electromagnetic fields and a contribution from the scalar electric potential. We point out that the potential term can make spurious…
A cardinal obstacle to understanding and predicting quantitatively the properties of solids and large molecules is that, for these systems, it is very challenging to describe beyond the mean-field level the quantum-mechanical interactions…
We present a theory of molecular motors based on the Ehrenfest dynamics for the nuclear coordinates and the adiabatic limit of the Kadanoff-Baym equations for the current-induced forces. Electron-electron interactions can be systematically…
