We investigate the nature of the interaction-driven Mott-Hubbard transition for frustrated Hubbard models, using a variational Monte Carlo approach including a distance-dependent Jastrow factor and a novel-type of holon-doublon correlation, the so-called backflow correlations. They allow to treat the doublon-holon excitons correctly in the large-U limit and for an improved understanding of the Fermi-surface renormalization close to the Mott-Hubbard transition. Indeed, we find that the Fermi surface renormalizes to perfect nesting right at the Mott-Hubbard transition in the insulating state, with a first-order reorganization when crossing the transition into the metallic state. This result may potentially change our view of the Mott-Hubbard transition in finite dimensions, since it seems to be qualitatively different from its infinite-dimension analogon.
