We investigate multi-band Hubbard models for the three iron 3$d$-$t_{2g}$ bands and the two iron 3$d$-$e_g$ bands in ${\rm La O Fe As}$ by means of the Gutzwiller variational theory. Our analysis of the paramagnetic ground state shows that…

Traditional theories of electron transport in crystals are based on the Boltzmann equation and do not capture physics arising from quantum coherence. We introduce a transport formalism based on ''orbital Wigner functions'', which accurately…

The anti-Stoner excitations are a spin-flips in which, effectively, an electron is promoted from a minority to a majority spin state, i.e., complementary to Stoner excitations and spin-waves. Since their spectral power is negligible in…
