FRANK, KONSTANTIN MERZ, HEINZ SIEDENTOP, AND BARRY SIMON Dedicated to Yakov Sinai on the occasion of his 85th birthday. Abstract. We consider a large neutral atom of atomic number Z, taking rel- ativistic effects into account by assuming the dispersion relation pc2p2 + c4. We study the behavior of the one-particle ground state density on the length scale Z−1 in the limit Z; c ! 1 keeping Z=c fixed and find that the spher- ically averaged density as well as all individual angular momentum densities separately converge to the relativistic hydrogenic ones. This proves the gen- eralization of the strong Scott conjecture for relativistic atoms and shows, in particular, that relativistic effects occur close to the nucleus. Along the way we prove upper bounds on the relativistic hydrogenic density. 1. Introduction 1.1. Some results on large Z-atoms. The asymptotic behavior of the ground state energy and the ground state density of atoms with large atomic number Z have been studied in detail in non-relativistic quantum mechanics. Soon after the advent of quantum mechanics it became clear that the non- relativistic quantum multi-particle problem is not analytically solvable and of in- creasing challenge with large particle number. This problem was addressed by Thomas [51] and Fermi [11, 12] by developing what was called the statistical model of the atom. The model is described by the so-called Thomas{Fermi functional (Lenz [28]) Z ZZ TF 3 5=3 Z 1 ρ(x)ρ(y) (1) EZ (ρ) := 10 γTFρ(x) − ρ(x) dx + dx dy ; 3 jxj 2 3 3 jx − yj R R ×R | {z } =:D[ρ] 2 2=3 where γTF = (6π =q) is a positive constant depending on the number q of spin states per electron, i.e., physically 2.

  • Coefficients of the Solid Angle and Ehrhart Quasi-Polynomials
    COEFFICIENTS OF THE SOLID ANGLE AND EHRHART QUASI-POLYNOMIALS FABR´ICIO CALUZA MACHADO AND SINAI ROBINS Abstract. Macdonald studied a discrete volume measure for a rational poly- tope P , called solid angle sum, that gives a natural discrete volume for P . We give a local formula for the codimension two quasi-coefficient of the solid angle sum of P . We also show how to recover the classical Ehrhart quasi-polynomial from the solid angle sum and in particular we find a similar local formula for the codimension one and codimension two quasi-coefficients. These local formulas are naturally valid for all positive real dilates of P . An interesting open question is to determine necessary and sufficient con- ditions on a polytope P for which the discrete volume of P given by the solid d angle sum equals its continuous volume: AP (t) = vol(P )t . We prove that d a sufficient condition is that P tiles R by translations, together with the Hyperoctahedral group. Contents 1. Introduction1 2. Main results4 3. Preliminaries9 4. Lattice sums 12 5.
