title: Quasiparticle parametrization of mean fields, Galilei invariance, and universal conserving response functions.
abstract: The general possible form of mean-field parametrization in a running frame in terms of current, energy, and density functionals is examined under the restrictions of Galilean invariance. It is found that only two density-dependent parameters remain which are usually condensed in a position-dependent effective mass and the self-energy formed by current and mass. The position-dependent mass induces a position-dependent local current, which is identified for different nonlinear frames. In a second step the response to an external perturbation and relaxation towards a local equilibrium is investigated. The response function is found to be universal in the sense that the actual parametrization of the local equilibrium does not matter and is eliminated from the theory due to the conservation laws. The explicit form of the response with respect to density, momentum, and energy is derived. The compressibility sum rule as well as the sum rule by first- and third-order frequency moments are proved analytically to be fulfilled simultaneously. The results are presented for Bose or Fermi systems in one, two, and three dimensions.
