Abstract
An approach is developed for describing inhomogeneous periodic structures in a system of Fermi particles with a short-range pair potential in the formalism of a functional integral and a functional effective action. Instability of a homogeneous base state at large pressures and also instability of a weakly inhomogeneous bodycentered structure are demonstrated.
