Abstract
The homogeneous electron liquid is a hypothetical system which has no true counterpart in the real world. Nevertheless, a great deal of work has been devoted to it. One reason for the persisting interest in this system is of course that the conduction electrons in many real metals can be approximately treated as uniformly distributed in space. Another reason is that an understanding of the homogeneous system is necessary as a starting-point for theories of inhomogeneous systems. A third reason may be that the electron liquid is a sufficiently simple system to be useful as a testing-ground for theoretical ideas about fluids in general and quantum fluids in particular.
