In Mott insulators with a half-filled $t_{2g}$ shell the Hund's rule coupling induces a spin-3/2 orbital-singlet ground state. The spin-orbit interaction is not expected to qualitatively impact low-energy degrees of freedom in such systems.…

The Hubbard model in the strong-coupling regime is mainly studied by Kondo-lattice theory or 1/d expansion theory, with d the spatial dimensionality. In two dimensions and higher, the ground state within the Hilbert subspace with no order…
Strong correlation effects, which are often associated to the approach to a Mott insulating state, in some cases may be observed even far from half-filling. This typically happens whenever the inter-site Coulomb repulsion induces a tendency…
