Electronic Structure of Strongly Correlated Systems Emerging from Combining Path-Integral Renormalization Group with the Density-Functional Approach

Yoshiki Imai, Igor V. Solovyev, Masatoshi Imada

A new scheme of first-principles computation for strongly correlated electron systems is proposed. This scheme starts from the local-density approximation (LDA) at high-energy band structure, while the low-energy effective Hamiltonian is constructed by a downfolding procedure using combinations of the constrained-LDA and the GW method. The obtained low-energy Hamiltonian is solved by the path-integral renormalization-group method, where spatial and dynamical fluctuations are fully considered. An application to Sr2VO4 shows that the scheme is powerful in agreement with experimental results. It further predicts a nontrivial orbital-stripe order.

Toward First Principles Electronic Structure Simulations of Excited States and Strong Correlations in Nano- and Materials Science

Anton Kozhevnikov, A. G. Eguiluz, T. C. Schulthess

Methods based on the many-body Green's function are generally accepted as the path forward beyond Kohn-Sham based density functional theory, in order to compute from first principles electronic structure of materials with strong correlations and excited-state properties in nano- and materials science. Here we present an efficient method to compute the screened Coulomb interactionW, the crucial and computationally most demanding ingredient in the GW method, within the framework of the all-electron Linearized Augmented Plane Wave method. We use the method to compute from first principles, within the constrained random phase approximation (c-RPA), the frequency-dependent screened Hubbard U-matrix defined for a Wannier basis in which we downfold the many-body Hamiltonian for La2CuO4, the canonical parent compound of several cuprate high-temperature superconductors. These results were computed at scale on the Cray XT5 at ORNL, sustaining 1.30 petaflop. We discuss the details of the algorithm and its implementation that allowed us to reach high efficiency and short time to solution on today's petaflop supercomputers.

Downfolding from ab initio to interacting model Hamiltonians: comprehensive analysis and benchmarking of the DFT+cRPA approach

Yueqing Chang, Erik G. C. P. van Loon, Brandon Eskridge +8 more

Abstract Model Hamiltonians are regularly derived from first principles to describe correlated matter. However, the standard methods for this contain a number of largely unexplored approximations. For a strongly correlated impurity model system, here we carefully compare a standard downfolding technique with the best possible ground-truth estimates for charge-neutral excited-state energies and wave functions using state-of-the-art first-principles many-body wave function approaches. To this end, we use the vanadocene molecule and analyze all downfolding aspects, including the Hamiltonian form, target basis, double-counting correction, and Coulomb interaction screening models. We find that the choice of target-space basis functions emerges as a key factor for the quality of the downfolded results, while orbital-dependent double-counting corrections diminish the quality. Background screening of the Coulomb interaction matrix elements primarily affects crystal-field excitations. Our benchmark uncovers the relative importance of each downfolding step and offers insights into the potential accuracy of minimal downfolded model Hamiltonians.
