Realistic calculations of transition metal oxides and f-electron materials with the LDA+DMFT approach — •Karsten Held — Max-Planck Institut für Festkörperphysik, Stuttgart
In the last few years, the merger of conventional band structure theory
in the local density approximation (LDA) with the many-body
dynamical mean-field theory
(DMFT) has been proven to be a powerful tool
for the realistic modeling of strongly correlated electron
systems. This talk provides a brief introduction to this
novel computational technique [1] and presents the results for
two prime examples of strongly correlated electron systems, i.e.,
the Mott-Hubbard transition in V2O3 [2] and the volume
collapse transition in Ce [3].
I acknowledge support by the Emmy-Noether program of the DFG
and thank the coauthors below for the joint effort.
