Momentum conservation and local field corrections for the response of interacting fermi gases
We reanalyzed the recently derived response function for interacting systems in relaxation-time approximation respecting density, momentum, and energy conservation. We find that momentum conservation leads exactly to the local-field corrections for both cases respecting only density conservation and respecting density and energy conservation. This rewriting simplifies the former formulas dramatically. We discuss the small wave vector expansion and find that the response function shows a high-frequency dependence of omega(-5), which allows to fulfill higher-order sum rules. The momentum conservation also resolves a puzzle about the conductivity, which should only be finite in multicomponent systems.
