Of concern is a rigorous Thomas–Fermi theory of ground state electron densities for quantum mechanical systems in an external magnetic field. The energy functional takes the form E(ρ1,ρ2)=∑2i=1ci ∫R3ρi (x)5/3 dx + (1)/(2) ∫R3∫R3[ρ(x)ρ(y)/‖x−y‖]dx dy +∫R3V(x)ρ(x)dx +∫R3(B(x)(ρ1(x)−ρ2(x))dx; here ci is a positive constant, ρ1 [resp. ρ2] is the density of spin‐up [resp. spin‐down] electrons, ρ=ρ1+ρ2 is the total electron density, V is a given potential (typically a Coulomb potential describing electron–nuclear attraction), and B describes the effect of the external magnetic field. Let Ni=∫R3ρi(x)dx be the number of spin‐up and spin‐down electrons for i=1,2, and let N=N1+N2 be the total number of electrons. Specifying N and minimizing E(ρ1,ρ2) generally leads to a spin polarized system. For example, if B≤0 and B■0, then ρ1≥ρ2 and N1>N2. This and a number of related results are proved.

Of concern is the nonlinear system in R3 Here λi,Cj are given positive constants. Such a system arises in spin polarized ground state electron density theory. The parametres λ:1:, λ:2 should be such that where N1>,N2 are given positive numbers satisfying where Z is some give positive number. (Here N

Publisher Summary This chapter describes the Fermi–Amaldi correction in spin polarized Thomas–Fermi Theory. In Thomas–Fermi theory one seeks to find the ground state (electron position) density of a quantum mechanical N electron system by minimizing the energy functional. The spin polarized analogue of Thomas–Fermi theory. The chapter also derives the Euler–Lagrange equations. However, in this case no miracle occurs; the chapter obtains a coupled system of nonlinear elliptic equations which cannot be reduced to a single equation. The Euler–Lagrange equations are reduced to a coupled system of two elliptic partial differential equations.

Of concern is a rigorous Thomas–Fermi theory of electron densities for spin‐polarized quantum‐mechanical systems. The number N↑, N↓ of spin‐up and spin‐down electrons are specified in advance, and one seeks to minimize the energy functional E(ρ↑,ρ↓) =c1∫R3(ρ↑(x)5/3 +ρ↓(x)5/3)dx +c2∫R3∫R3[ρ(x)ρ(y)/‖x −y‖]dx dy +∫R3V(x)ρ(x)dx, where c1, c2 are given positive constants, ρ↑ and ρ↓ are non‐negative functions, ρ=ρ↑ +ρ↓ is the total electron density, ∫R3ρ↑(x)dx =N↑, ∫R3ρ↓(x)dx =N↓, and V is a given potential. These results are analogous to the classical rigorous (spin‐unpolarized) Thomas–Fermi theory developed by Lieb and Simon [Phys. Rev. Lett. 33, 681 (1973)] and by Benilan and Brezis (‘‘The Thomas–Fermi problem,’’ in preparation).

Recently Parr and Ghosh [Proc. Natl. Acad. Sci. USA 83, 3577 (1986)] proposed a variant of the classical Thomas–Fermi theory of electrons in an atom. They produced a continuous electron density by introducing the constraint that the integral ∫R3 e−2k‖x‖ Δρ(x)dx exists, where k is determined by the nuclear cusp condition. Their results give improved calculations of ground state electron densities and energies. The present paper provides a rigorous mathematical foundation for the work of Parr and Ghosh and converts their results into theorems. Some generalizations are also obtained.
