We derive a multi-band formulation of the orbital magnetization in a normal periodic insulator (i.e., one in which the Chern invariant, or in 2d the Chern number, vanishes). Following the approach used recently to develop the single-band…
Based on standard perturbation theory, we present a full quantum derivation of the formula for the orbital magnetization in periodic systems. The derivation is generally valid for insulators with or without a Chern number, for metals at…
The key formula for computing the orbital magnetization of a crystalline system has been recently found [D. Ceresoli, T. Thonhauser, D. Vanderbilt, R. Resta, Phys. Rev. B {\bf 74}, 024408 (2006)]: it is given in terms of a Brillouin-zone…
The modern theory of orbital magnetization addresses crystalline materials at the noninteracting level: therein the observable is the k-space integral of a geometrical integrand. Alternatively, magnetization admits a local representation in…
In this review article, we survey the relatively new theory of orbital magnetization in solids-often referred to as the "modern theory of orbital magnetization"-and its applications. Surprisingly, while the calculation of the orbital…

Magnetization is thermodynamically defined as the derivative of the grand potential with respect to a uniform magnetic field. However, a uniform magnetic field makes the kinetic momentum operators noncommuting and Landau-quantizes the…
The theory of bulk orbital magnetization has been formulated both in reciprocal space based on Berry curvature and related quantities, and in real space in terms of the spatial average of a quantum mechanical local marker. Here we consider…
Orbital differentiation is a common theme in multiorbital systems, yet a complete understanding of it is still missing. Here, we consider a minimal model for orbital differentiation in Hund metals with a highly accurate method: We use the…

We extend the natural orbital impurity solver [PRB 90, 085102 (2014)] to finite temperatures and apply it to calculate spectral and transport properties of correlated electrons within the dynamical mean-field theory. First, we benchmark our…
The theory of orbital magnetization is reconsidered by defining additional quantities that incorporate a non-Hermitian effect due to anomalous operators that break the domain of definition of the Hermitian Hamiltonian. As a result, boundary…
Spin-orbit coupling introduces chirality into electronic structure. This can have profound effects on the magnetization induced by orbital motion of electrons. Here we derive a formula for the orbital magnetization of interacting electrons…
The real space formalism of orbital magnetization (OM) is an average of the local OM over some appropriate region of the system. Previous studies prefer a bulk average (i.e., without including boundaries). Based on a bilayer model with an…
