Publications

At present my research interests are concentrated in strongly correlated many-particle systems as they generally occur in condensed matter and statistical physics. More specifically, the topics of current interest include (a) classical and quantum density-functional-theories, and connections between the two, (b) general aspects of the metal-insulator transition, in two- and three-dimensions, (c) theory of the metallic phases of hydrogen and of matter under extreme conditions, (d) theories of electronically ordered states including charge-density-wave states and superconductivity, (e) band-theory and its applications to superlattice and heterostructure systems, and (f) descriptions of metal-glass interfaces via electronic density functional theory.
