DMFT Designed to treat strongly correlated electron materials [ for example Mott transition problem] but treats well many other situations…… MIGDAL-ELIASHBERG THEORY was the first (albeit aproximate) Dynamical Mean Field Theoryl Designed to compute one electron spectral functions, photoemission and BIS Designed to treat finite electronic temperature Can in principle treat superconductivity and other orders Combines ideas of physics (bands ) and chemistry (local CI) It is a relatively new method. Still rapidly developing.

Importance of Hund’s coupling Hubbard U is not the “relevant” parameter. The Hund’s coupling brings correlations! Specific heat within LDA+DMFT for LaO F 0.1 FeAs at U=4eV LDA value For J=0 there is negligible mass enhancement at U~W! J~0.35 gives correct order ofMagnitude  The coupling between the Fe magnetic moment and the mean-field medium (As-p,neighbors Fe-d) becomes ferromagnetic for large Hund’s coupling! KHaule, G. Kotliar, LaO F 0.1 FeAs Prediction

DMFT : the middle way More expensive than density functional theory ( because it targets spectral properties) Less expensive than direct application of QMC or CI (because it only uses these tools locally ) Utilizes advances in electronic structure [ DMFT can be built on top of LDA, hybrid-DFT, GW ] and techniques such as QMC or CI, and its various levels of approx to solve the impurity problem. Greens function method, based on a judicious use of the local approximation. Solved the Mott transition problem in the context of the model Hamiltonians. Goal, combine those ideas with technology from electronic structure methods to understand and predict properties of correlated materials. Testing methods: “simple” models, experiments, predictive power ?
