Electronic correlated systems are often well described by dynamical mean field theory (DMFT). While DMFT studies have mainly focused hitherto on one-particle properties, valuable information is also enclosed into local two-particle Green's…

The two-particle vertex function is crucial for the diagrammatic extensions beyond DMFT for the nonlocal fluctuation. However, estimating the two-particle quantities is still a challenging task. In this study, we propose a simplification of…
We generalize the dynamical-mean field (DMFT) approximation by including into the DMFT equations some length scale via a momentum dependent ``external'' self-energy S(k). This external self-energy describes non-local dynamical correlations…
In this paper, we investigate how nonlocal correlations affect, selectively, the physics of correlated electrons over different energy scales, from the Fermi level to the band-edges. This goal is achieved by applying a diagrammatic…
The calculation of electronic properties of materials is an important task of solid state theory, albeit particularly difficult if electronic correlations are strong, for example in transition metals, their oxides and in f-electron systems.…
