Correlation energy of the anyon gas
Charles B. Hanna, Alexander L. Fetter
Abstract
The correlation energy of the anyon gas is expressed in terms of a coupling-constant integral involving two-body and three-body correlation functions. In the random-phase approximation, the dominant two-body contributions involve the energy difference between the collective modes of the interacting and noninteracting systems, which is evaluated numerically for the Bose gas and for semions.
