We review the role of strong electronic correlations in quasi--two-dimensional organic charge transfer salts such as (BEDT-TTF)$_2X$, (BETS)$_2Y$ and $\beta'$-[Pd(dmit)$_2$]$_2Z$. We begin by defining minimal models for these materials. It…
The electronic properties of $\pi$-conjugated two-dimensional (2D) polymers near the Fermi level are determined by structural topology and chemical composition. Thus, tight-binding (TB) calculations of the corresponding fundamental network…
In the most studied family of organic superconductors kappa-(BEDT-TTF)_2X, the BEDT-TTF molecules that make up the conducting planes are coupled as dimers. For some anions X, an antiferromagnetic insulator is found at low temperatures…
The superconducting metal-organic framework Cu-BHT forms a kagome lattice with metals at the vertices and ligands along the bonds. This bipartite motif is common in reticular materials. We show that a tight-binding model on this lattice…
We investigate pairing and superconductivity in the attractive Fermi Hubbard model on the one-dimensional sawtooth lattice, which exhibits a flat band by fine-tuning the hopping rates. We first solve the two-body problem, both analytically…

We propose a mew picture for superconductivity in $\kappa-(BEDT-TTF)_2X$ salts arguing that small-{\bf q} electron-phonon scattering dominates the pairing. We reproduce the distinct X-shaped d-wave gap reported recently by magnetooptic…
We investigated the electronic states of the quasi-one-dimensional organic conductors $\delta'_{P}$-(BPDT-TTF)$_2$ICl$_2$ and $\delta'_{C}$-(BPDT-TTF)$_2$ICl$_2$, both of which are insulating at room temperature owing to strong electron…
We present a novel and convenient mean-field method, and apply it to study the metallic/antiferromagnetic interface of k-(BEDT-TTF)_2Cu[N(CN)]_2 Y organic superconductors (BEDT_TTF is bis-ethylen-dithio-tetrathiafulvalene, Y=Cl, Br). The…
We report a novel insulator-insulator transition arising from the internal charge degrees of freedom in the two-dimensional quarter-filled organic salt beta-(meso-DMBEDT-TTF)2PF6. The optical conductivity spectra above Tc = 70 K display a…
According to the Bardeen-Cooper-Schrieffer (BCS) theory, superconductivity usually needs well defined Fermi surface(s) with strong electron-phonon coupling and moderate quasiparticle density of states (DOS). A kagome lattice can host flat…
The claims that a copper-substituted lead apatite, denoted as CuPb$_9$(PO$_4$)$_6$OH$_2$, could be a room-temperature superconductor have led to an intense research activity. While other research groups did not confirm these claims, and the…
Theoretical quest of flat-band tight-binding models usually relies on lattice structures on which electrons reside. Typical examples of candidate lattice structures include the Lieb-type lattices and the line graphs. Meanwhile, there can be…
Simulations in finite density, beta=0 lattice QCD by means of the Monomer-Dimer-Polymer algorithm show a signal of first order transition at finite temporal size. This behaviour agrees with predictions of the mean field approximation, but…
Motivated by the recent experimental determination of the three-dimensional Fermi surface of overdoped La-based cuprate superconductors [Horio et al., Phys. Rev. Lett. 2018, 121, 077004], we revisit the tight-binding parameterization of…

We study the electronic states of the anisotropic triangular lattice Hubbard model at half filling, which is a simple effective model for the organic superconducting $\kappa$-BEDT-TTF compounds. We treat the effect of the Coulomb…
We study the Anderson lattice model with one f-orbital per lattice site as the simplest model which describes generic features of heavy fermion materials. The resistivity and magnetic susceptibility results obtained within dynamical mean…
We employ a tight-binding parametrization based on the Slater Koster model in order to fit the band structures of single-layer, bilayer and bulk black phosphorus obtained from first-principles calculations. We find that our model, which…
Semiconducting transition metal dichalcogenides present a complex electronic band structure with a rich orbital contribution to their valence and conduction bands. The possibility to consider the electronic states from a tight-binding model…
