Friedel density tail from a derivative singularity

ID: friedel-density-tail-from-a-derivative-singularity

For the radial induced-charge screening kernel, integrate the sine transform twice by parts, with and vanishing remaining endpoint terms. This gives . A Cauchy principal value singularity at contributes to that integral: set and use for . Smoothly localizing around justifies the large- extension of the limits. In a three-dimensional isotropic Fermi gas, .
