Dynamical Mean-Field Theory of Electronic Correlations in Models and Materials

D. Vollhardt, Adolfo Avella, Ferdinando Mancini

The concept of electronic correlations plays an important role in modern condensed matter physics. It refers to interaction effects which cannot be explained within a static mean‐field picture as provided by Hartree‐Fock theory. Electronic correlations can have a very strong influence on the properties of materials. For example, they may turn a metal into an insulator (Mott‐Hubbard metal‐insulator transition). In these lecture notes I (i) introduce basic notions of the physics of correlated electronic systems, (ii) discuss the construction of mean‐field theories by taking the limit of high lattice dimensions, (iii) explain the simplifications of the many‐body perturbation theory in this limit which provide the basis for the formulation of a comprehensive mean‐field theory for correlated fermions, the dynamical mean‐field theory (DMFT), (v) derive the DMFT self‐consistency equations, and (vi) apply the DMFT to investigate electronic correlations in models and materials.

Collective magnetic fluctuations in Hubbard plaquettes captured by fluctuating local field method

Alexey N. Rubtsov, E. A. Stepanov, Alexander I. Lichtenstein

We establish a way to handle main collective fluctuations in correlated quantum systems based on a fluctuating local field concept. This technique goes beyond standard mean-field approaches, such as Hartree-Fock and dynamical mean-field theories (DMFT), as it includes a fluctuating classical field that acts on the leading order parameter of the system. Effective model parameters of this theory are determined from the variational principle, which allows one to resolve the Fierz ambiguity in decoupling of the local interaction term. In the saddle-point approximation for the fluctuating field our method reproduces the mean-field result. The exact numerical integration over this field allows one to consider nonlinear fluctuations of the global order parameter of the system while local correlations can be accounted for by solving the DMFT impurity problem. We apply our method to the magnetic susceptibility of finite Hubbard systems at half-filling and demonstrate that the introduced technique leads to a superior improvement of results with respect to parental mean-field approaches, without significant numerical complications. We show that the fluctuating local field method can be used in a very broad range of temperatures substantially below the N\'eel temperature of DMFT, which remains a major challenge for all existing theoretical approaches.
