Similar scenario was encountered in previous study of the kappa organics. O Parcollet G. Biroli and G. Kotliar PRL, 92, 226402. (2004).

27. What about the electron doped semiconductors ?

28. Spectral Function A(k,ω→0)= -1/π G(k, ω →0) vs k electron doped P. Armitage et.al. 2001 Civelli et.al. 2004 Momentum space differentiation a we approach the Mott transition is a generic phenomena. Location of cold and hot regions depend on parameters.

29. oQualitative Difference between the hole doped and the electron doped phase diagram is due to the underlying normal state.” In the hole doped, it has nodal quasiparticles near ( ,  /2) which are ready “to become the superconducting quasiparticles”. Therefore the superconducing state can evolve continuously to the normal state. The superconductivity can appear at very small doping. oElectron doped case, has in the underlying normal state quasiparticles leave in the (  0) region, there is no direct road to the superconducting state (or at least the road is tortuous) since the latter has QP at (  /2,  /2).

30.  Can we connect the superconducting state with the “underlying “normal” state “ ?  Yes, within our resolution in the hole doped case.  No in the electron doped case.  What does the underlying “normal state “ look like ?  Unusual distribution of spectra (Fermi arcs) in the normal state.

31. Mott transition into a low entropy insulator. Is superconuctivity realized in Am ? Density functional based electronic structure calculations:  Non magnetic LDA/GGA predicts volume 50% off.  Magnetic GGA corrects most of error in volume but gives m ~6  B (Soderlind et.al., PRB 2000).  Experimentally, Am has non magnetic f 6 ground state with J=0 ( 7 F 0 ) Mott Transition?“Soft” “Hard”

34. Conclusions Correlated Electron materials, as a second frontier in materials science research, the “in between “ regime between itinerant and localizedis very interesting. Getting the general picture, and the material specific details are both important.. Mott transition : open shell (finite T Mott endpoint in V2O3, NiSeS, K-organics, Pu ) closed shell case (Am, cuprates…….)connection to superconductivity. The challenge of material design using correlated materials.

35. DMFT is a useful mean field tool to study correlated electrons. Provide a zeroth order picture of a physical phenomena. Provide a link between a simple system (“mean field reference frame”) and the physical system of interest. [Sites, Links, and Plaquettes] Formulate the problem in terms of local quantities (which we can usually compute better). Allows to perform quantitative studies and predictions. Focus on the discrepancies between experiments and mean field predictions. Generate useful language and concepts. Follow mean field states as a function of parameters. Controlled approach! Conclusions

37. Conjecture, Mott transition with Zcold finite ? Continuity with the insulator at one point in the zone.

43.  Is the formation of the hot and cold regions is the result of the proximity to Antiferromagnetism ? Study various values of t’/t, U=16.

44. Introduce much larger frustration: t’=.9t U=16t n=.69.92.96

45.  Is the momentum space differentiation a result of proximity to an ordered state, e.g. antiferromagnetism?  Fermi Surface Breakup or Momentum space differentiation takes place irrespectively of the value of t’. The gross features are the result of the proximity to a Mott insulating state irrespective of whether there is magnetic long range order.

48. Alternative view

51. Approaching the Mott transition: Qualitative effect, momentum space differentiation. Formation of hot –cold regions is an unavoidable consequence of the approach to the Mott insulating state! General phenomena, but the location of the cold regions depends on parameters. With the present resolution, t’ =.9 and.3 are similar. However it is perfectly possible that at lower energies further refinements and differentiation will result from the proximity to different ordered states.

52. Further understanding of phenomena of momentum space differentiation. Analyze the results in terms of a few (three!) self energy functions.

53. Fermi Surface Shape Renormalization ( t eff ) ij =t ij + Re(  ij 

54. Fermi Surface Shape Renormalization Photoemission measured the low energy renormalized Fermi surface. If the high energy (bare ) parameters are doping independent, then the low energy hopping parameters are doping dependent. Another failure of the rigid band picture. Electron doped case, the Fermi surface renormalizes TOWARDS nesting, the hole doped case the Fermi surface renormalizes AWAY from nesting. Enhanced magnetism in the electron doped side.

The “”in between regime” is ubiquitous central theme in strongly correlated systems. Actinides allow us to probe this physics in ELEMENTS. Mott transition across the actinide series [ B. Johansson Phil Mag. 30,469 (1974)]. Revisit the problem using a new insights and new techniques from the solution of the Mott transition problem within DMFT in a model Hamiltonian. Use the ideas and concepts that resulted from this development to give physical qualitative insights into real materials.
