We analyze here some of the most recent experimental results[1] for the resistivity ρ and the Hall-resistivity ρH of the high-Tc superconducting cuprates. Surprisingly, the measured ratio ρ/ρH shows a universal, Fermi-liquid (FL) temperature dependence across the whole phase diagram. In the simplest Drude picture, this ratio would correspond to FL scattering rate (γ ∝ T2). In this context, γ can be computed in many-body theory from the imaginary part of the self-energy at the Fermi surface [−Im( Σ(w=0,kF) )]. In particular, to estimate −Im( Σ(w=0,kF) ), we have employed diagrammatic extensions of DMFT, namely the dual fermion (DF) approach and the dynamical vertex approximation (DΓA). The obtained temperature dependences will be compared to a more precise, but also challenging, direct estimate of ρ/ρH, by means of the *bubble-like* term of the corresponding conductivity tensors.
