Abstract
The property of the remote electron a certain distance away from a Wig ner crystallized two-dimensional electron system (2DES) is investigate d. The electron mass of the remote electron is: 1) modified by the per iodic potential of the Wigner crystal (WC), and 2) renormalized due to the WC phonons, i.e. the polaron effect. The latter is obtained using the Feynman path integral method which also provides us with the corr elation Energy. In this novel polaron problem the electron-phonon inte raction can be controlled by the distance between the two 2DES.
