Strong Correlation Anomalies cannot be understood within the standard model of solids, based on a RIGID BAND PICTURE,e.g.“Metallic “resistivities that rise without sign of saturation beyond the Mott limit, temperature dependence of the integrated optical weight up to high frequency

Conclusions.
• Three peak structure, quasiparticles and Hubbard bands.
• Non local transfer of spectral weight.• Large metallic resistivities.• The Mott transition is driven by transfer of
spectral weight from low to high energy as we approach the localized phase.
• Coherent and incoherence crossover. Real and momentum space.
• Theory and experiments begin to agree on a broad picture.

• The combination of realistic band theory and many body physics, is a very broad subject.
• Having a practical and tractable non perturbative method for solving many body Hamiltonians, the next step is to bring more realistic descriptions of the materials Orbital degeneracy and realistic band structure.
• LDA+DMFT V. Anisimov, A. Poteryaev, M. Korotin, A. Anokhin and G. Kotliar, J. Phys. Cond. Mat. 35, 7359 (1997).
• The light, sp (or spd) electrons are extended, well described by LDA .The heavy, d (or f) electrons are localized treat by DMFT. Use Khon Sham Hamiltonian after substracting average energy already contained in LDA.
• Add to the substracted Kohn Sham Hamiltonian a frequency dependent self energy, from DMFT.
• Determine the density self consistently.(Chitra, Kotliar, PRB 2001, Savrasov, Kotliar, Abrahams, Nature 2001).

Dynamical Mean Field View of Pu(Savrasov Kotliar and Abrahams, Nature 2001)
• Delta and Alpha Pu are both strongly correlated, the DMFT mean field free energy has a double well structure, for the same value of U. One where the f electron is a bit more localized (delta) than in the other (alpha).
• Is the natural consequence of earlier studies of the Mott transition phase diagram once electronic structure is about to vary.

• Pu strongly correlated element, at the brink of a Mott instability.
• Realistic implementations of DMFT : total energy, photoemission spectra and phonon dispersions of delta Pu.
• Clues to understanding other Pu anomalies.

The delta –epsilon transition
• The high temperature phase, (epsilon) is body centered cubic, and has a smaller volume than the (fcc) delta phase.
• What drives this phase transition?
• LDA+DMFT functional computes total energies opens the way to the computation of phonon frequencies in correlated materials (S. Savrasov and G. Kotliar 2002). Combine linear response and DMFT.

Phonon entropy drives the epsilon delta phase transition
• Epsilon is slightly more delocalized than delta, has SMALLER volume and lies at HIGHER energy than delta at T=0. But it has a much larger phonon entropy than delta.
• At the phase transition the volume shrinks but the phonon entropy increases.
• Estimates of the phase transition following Drumont and G. Ackland et. al. PRB.65, 184104 (2002); (and neglecting electronic entropy). TC ~ 600 K.

Further Approximations. o The light, SP (or SPD) electrons are extended, well described by LDA .The heavy,
d(or f) electrons are localized treat by DMFT.LDA Kohn Sham Hamiltonian already contains an average interaction of the heavy electrons, subtract this out by shifting the heavy level (double counting term) .
o Truncate the W operator act on the H sector only. i.e.
• Replace W() by a static U. This quantity can be estimated by a constrained LDA calculation or by a GW calculation with light electrons only. e.g.
M.Springer and F.Aryasetiawan,Phys.Rev.B57,4364(1998) T.Kotani,J.Phys:Condens.Matter12,2413(2000). FAryasetiawan M Imada A Georges G Kotliar S Biermann and A Lichtenstein cond-matt (2004)

from a functional (Savrasov and Kotliar 2001)

Double well structure is immediate consequence of having two solutions to the DMFT equations and allowing the relaxation of the volume. The itinerant
solution expands the localized solution contracts .

Dynamical Mean Field View of Pu(Savrasov Kotliar and Abrahams, Nature 2001)
• Delta and Alpha Pu are both strongly correlated, the DMFT mean field free energy has a double well structure, for the same value of U. One where the f electron is a bit more localized (delta) than in the other (alpha).
• Is the natural consequence of earlier studies of the Mott transition phase diagram once electronic structure is about to vary.

• Snapshots of the f electron :Dominant configuration:(5f)5
• Naïve view Lz=-3,-2,-1,0,1, ML=-5 B, ,S=5/2 Ms=5 B . Mtot=0
• More realistic calculations, (GGA+U),itineracy, crystal fields ML=-3.9 Mtot=1.1. S. Y. Savrasov and G. Kotliar, Phys. Rev. Lett., 84, 3670 (2000)
• This moment is quenched or screened by spd electrons, and other f electrons. (e.g. alpha Ce).

The delta –epsilon transition
• The high temperature phase, (epsilon) is body centered cubic, and has a smaller volume than the (fcc) delta phase.
• What drives this phase transition?
• LDA+DMFT functional computes total energies opens the way to the computation of phonon frequencies in correlated materials (S. Savrasov and G. Kotliar 2002). Combine linear response and DMFT.

Phonon entropy drives the epsilon delta phase transition
• Epsilon is slightly more delocalized than delta, has SMALLER volume and lies at HIGHER energy than delta at T=0. But it has a much larger phonon entropy than delta.
• At the phase transition the volume shrinks but the phonon entropy increases.
• Estimates of the phase transition following Drumont and G. Ackland et. al. PRB.65, 184104 (2002); (and neglecting electronic entropy). TC ~ 600 K.

Further Approximations. o The light, SP (or SPD) electrons are extended, well described by LDA .The heavy,
d(or f) electrons are localized treat by DMFT.LDA Kohn Sham Hamiltonian already contains an average interaction of the heavy electrons, subtract this out by shifting the heavy level (double counting term) .
o Truncate the W operator act on the H sector only. i.e.
• Replace W() by a static U. This quantity can be estimated by a constrained LDA calculation or by a GW calculation with light electrons only. e.g.
M.Springer and F.Aryasetiawan,Phys.Rev.B57,4364(1998) T.Kotani,J.Phys:Condens.Matter12,2413(2000). FAryasetiawan M Imada A Georges G Kotliar S Biermann and A Lichtenstein cond-matt (2004)

or the U matrix can be adjusted empirically.• At this point, the approximation can be derived
from a functional (Savrasov and Kotliar 2001)

Dynamical Mean Field Theory
• Focus on the local spectral function A() of the solid.• Write a functional of the local spectral function such that
its stationary point, give the energy of the solid.• No explicit expression for the exact functional exists,
but good approximations are available.• The spectral function is computed by solving a local
impurity model. Which is a new reference system to think about correlated electrons.

Breakdown of standard model
• Large metallic resistivities exceeding the Mott limit.• Breakdown of the rigid band picture.• Anomalous transfer of spectral weight in photoemission
and optics. • LDA+GW loses its predictive power.
• Need new reference frame, to think about and compute the properties of correlated materials.
• Need new starting point to do perturbation theory.

Localization vs Delocalization Strong Correlation Problem
• Many interesting compounds do not fit within the “Standard Model”.
• Tend to have elements with partially filled d and f shells. Competition between kinetic and Coulomb interactions.
• Breakdown of the wave picture. Need to incorporate a real space perspective (Mott).
• Non perturbative problem.• Require a framework that combines both
atomic physics and band theory. DMFT.
