We investigate the behavior of polarized dipolar fermions in a two-dimensional harmonic trap in the framework of the density functional theory (DFT) formalism using the
local density approximation. We treat only a few particles interacting moderately. Important
results were deduced concerning key characteristics of the system such as total energy and
particle density. Our results indicate that, at variance with Coulombic systems, the exchangecorrelation
component was found to provide a large contribution to the total energy for a large range of interaction strengths and particle numbers. In addition, the density profiles of
the dipoles are shown to display important features around the origin that is not possible to
capture by earlier, simpler treatments of such systems.
