Abstract

For a harmonic potential, which is the special shape-invariant potential discussed in our paper [1], the relation between the ground state and the first-excited-state wave functions [Eq. (2)] should be . . . Therefore, we have shown that one cannot find a closed form of the kinetic-energy density for the harmonic oscillator.

Kinetic-energy density functional for a special shape-invariant potential of a one-dimensional two-level system

Jiushu Shao, John J. Stezowski

By introducing the concept of supersymmetry to quantum mechanics, several authors have shown that exactly soluble potentials, including all those well known, are easily constructed. Is the kinetic-energy density functional corresponding to these potentials a simple form? We show that the answer is no, even to the simplest one, the harmonic potential, if one builds the kinetic-energy density functional from the reduced density matrix.

Closed Relation Between Single-Particle Kinetic Energy and Electron Density in One-Dimensional Two-Level Systems

Pawel Michal Kozlowski, Norman Henry March

For a two-level problem in one dimension, an implicit relation is derived relating the kinetic energy density t s (x) to the electron density p(x) plus its first and second derivatives.As an example, tle harmonic oscillator potential is used to make this relation explicit.

Exact single-particle kinetic energy functional for general two-level and modeln-level one-dimensional systems: Dependence only on electron density and its gradient

Pawel Michal Kozlowski, N. H. March

From the explicit solution of a two-level problem previously obtained, it is proved that the single-particle kinetic energy density functional ${t}_{s}$[\ensuremath{\rho}] is the density \ensuremath{\rho} times a function solely of the ratio \ensuremath{\rho}'/\ensuremath{\rho}, with \ensuremath{\rho}' the first derivative of \ensuremath{\rho}. For an n-level system with a harmonic-oscillator potential, the form of ${t}_{s}$[\ensuremath{\rho}] is explicitly obtained. Again ${t}_{s}$[\ensuremath{\rho}] involves only \ensuremath{\rho} and \ensuremath{\rho}'; no higher derivatives appear.

In reply to the Comment by Maamache on Phys. Rev. A 58, 1574 (1998), it is shown first that the $\mathrm{M\ifmmode\ddot\else\textasciidieresis\fi{}}(t)$ terms are canceled and then that the wave function [Eq. (34)] is an eigenfunction of the invariant of Eq. (19).

Density for Fermions in a Harmonic-Oscillator Potential

J. Cugnon, O. Harouna

We show explicitly that the ground-state density of a system of noninteracting fermions in a harmonic-oscillator potential well can be given in terms of the wave functions of the single-particle states around the Fermi level.
