Fully characterising the low-temperature phase diagram of magic-angle twisted bilayer graphene (MATBG) has proven to be one of the most compelling challenges in recent condensed matter physics. Correlation effects dominate due to the flatness of the low-energy bands. By varying doping and temperature, one can tune between superconductor, correlated-insulator, and strange metal phases. It has been difficult to apply standard strong-correlation computational techniques because of a topological obstruction, which precludes the existence of exponentially localized, symmetry-preserving Wannier functions for the flat bands. Recently, a heavy Fermion model has been proposed that successfully treats the hybrid localised-delocalised nature of MATBG [1]. We apply dynamical mean field theory (DMFT) to the heavy Fermion model to describe electron correlation effects in MATBG. In particular, we demonstrate how filling commensurability affects transport at low temperatures.
