Title

Ensemble Density Functional Theory Of The Fractional Quantum Hall Effect

Abstract

We develop an ensemble density functional theory for the fractional quantum Hall effect using a local density approximation. Model calculations for edge reconstructions of a spin-polarized quantum dot give results in good agreement with semiclassical and Hartree-Fock calculations, and with small system numerical diagonalizations. This establishes the usefulness of density functional theory to study the fractional quantum Hall effect, which opens up the possibility of studying inhomogeneous systems with many more electrons than has heretofore been possible. © 1995 The American Physical Society.
