In both cases theory (DMFT) and experiment suggest a more gradual transformation than postulated in earlier theories. DMFT: Physical connection between spectra and structure.

66. Actinides and The Mott Phenomena Evolution of the electronic structure between the atomic limit and the band limit in an open shell situation. 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. Turn the technology developed to solve simple models into a practical quantitative electronic structure method.

89. Conclusions 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. Study the “normal state” of the Hubbard model is useful. On the hole doped normal and superconducting state can be connected to each other as in the RVB scenario. High Tc superconductivity may result follow from doping a Mott insulator phase but it is not necessarily follow from it. One may not be able to connect the Mott insulator to the superconductor if the nodes are in the “wrong place”.

90. To test if the formation of the hot and cold regions is the result of the proximity to Antiferromagnetism, we studied various values of t’/t, U=16.

92. 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.

95. 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.

96. Understanding the location of the hot and cold regions.

98. 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).
