Title: Ground-state energy of charged quantum fluids in two dimensions
Abstract: The ground state of a two-dimensional charged quantum system is studied using the method of correlated-basis functions. For particles obeying the Bose-Einstein statistics we compute the ground-state energy variationally for all particle densities using the Bijl-Dingle-Jastrow trial wave function. The Bose ground-state energy and wave function so determined are used next to study the Fermi system. We compute the Fermi ground-state energy using a cluster expansion approach, which is again valid for all particle densities, and find that the ground state is paramagnetic. While these calculations provide variational upper bounds to the ground-state energies, we also establish independent lower bounds to the ground-state energies.
