We examine ground state correlations for repulsive, quasi one-dimensional bosons in a harmonic trap. In particular, we focus on the few particle limit N=2,3,4,..., where exact numerical solutions of the many particle Schroedinger equation are available employing the Multi-Configuration Time-dependent Hartree method. Our numerical results for the inhomogeneous system are modeled with the analytical solution of the homogeneous problem using the Bethe ansatz and the local density approximation. Tuning the interaction strength from the weakly correlated Gross-Pitaevskii- to the strongly correlated Tonks-Girardeau regime reveals finite particle number effects in the second order correlation function beyond the local density approximation.

We study both static and transport properties of model quantum dots, employing density functional theory as well as (numerically) exact methods. For the lattice model under consideration the accuracy of the local-density approximation generally is po or. For weak interaction, however, accurate results are achieved within the optimized effective potential method, while for intermediate interaction strengths a method combining the exact diagonalization of small clusters with density functional theory is very successful. Results obtained from the latter approach yield very good agreement with density matrix renormalization group studies, where the full Hamiltonian consisting of the dot and the attached leads has to be diagonalized. Furthermore we address the question whether static density functional theory is able to predict the exact linear conductance through the dot correctly - with, in general, negative answer.
We develop relativistic short-range exchange energy functionals for four-component relativistic range-separated density-functional theory using a Dirac-Coulomb Hamiltonian in the no-pair approximation. We show how to improve the short-range local-den sity approximation exchange functional for large range-separation parameters by using the on-top exchange pair density as a new variable. We also develop a relativistic short-range generalized-gradient approximation exchange functional which further increases the accuracy for small range-separation parameters. Tests on the helium, beryllium, neon, and argon isoelectronic series up to high nuclear charges show that this latter functional gives exchange energies with a maximal relative percentage error of 3 %. The development of this exchange functional represents a step forward for the application of four-component relativistic range-separated density-functional theory to chemical compounds with heavy elements.
In a previous paper we suggested that a macroscopic force field applied across a two-dimensional electron gas channel could induce a microscopic charge density wave as soon as the proper compressibility becomes negative, which happens at densities mu ch higher than the critical density for the Wigner crystal transition. The suggestion was based on a calculation of the ground state energy in the local density approximation. In this paper we refine our calculation of the energy by including a self-consistent gradient correction to the kinetic energy. Due to the increased energy cost of rapid density variations, we find a much lower critical density for the onset of the charge density wave. This critical density coincides with the result of a linear stability analysis of the uniform ground state in the absence of the electric field.
Here we describe the form of the Asymmetric Superfluid Local Density Approximation (ASLDA), a Density Functional Theory (DFT) used to model the two-component unitary Fermi gas. We give the rational behind the functional, and describe explicitly how w e determine the form of the DFT from the to the available numerical and experimental data.
In the present work, the problem of an all-coupling analytic description for the optical conductivity of the Froehlich polaron is treated, with the goal being to bridge the gap in validity range that exists between two complementary methods: on the o ne hand the memory function formalism and on the other hand the strong-coupling expansion based on the Franck-Condon picture for the polaron response. At intermediate coupling, both methods were found to fail as they do not reproduce Diagrammatic Quantum Monte Carlo results. To resolve this, we modify the memory function formalism with respect to the Feynman-Hellwarth-Iddings-Platzman (FHIP) approach, in order to take into account a non-quadratic interaction in a model system for the polaron. The strong-coupling expansion is extended beyond the adiabatic approximation, by including into the treatment non-adiabatic transitions between excited polaron states. The polaron optical conductivity that we obtain by combining the two extended methods agree well, both qualitatively and quantitatively, with the Diagrammatic Quantum Monte Carlo results in the whole available range of the electron-phonon coupling strength.
