Stability of atoms and molecules in an ultrarelativistic Thomas-Fermi-Weizsaecker model
Rafael D. Benguria, Michael Loss, Heinz Siedentop
We consider the zero mass limit of a relativistic Thomas-Fermi-Weizsaecker model of atoms and molecules. We find bounds for the critical nuclear charges that ensure stability.
Mueller's Exchange-Correlation Energy in Density-Matrix-Functional Theory
Rupert L. Frank, Elliott H. Lieb, Robert Seiringer +1
The increasing interest in the Mueller density-matrix-functional theory has led us to a systematic mathematical investigation of its properties. This functional is similar to the H…
The Ground State Energy of Heavy Atoms: Relativistic Lowering of the Leading Energy Correction
Rupert L. Frank, Heinz Siedentop, Simone Warzel
We describe atoms by a pseudo-relativistic model that has its origin in the work of Chandrasekhar. We prove that the leading energy correction for heavy atoms, the Scott correction…
