New ways to treat electron correlation in electronic structure problems are discussed in the context of many-electron theory. The present work focuses primarily on static correlation. In related work, a method for including dynamical…
Strongly correlated materials are profoundly affected by the repulsive electron-electron interaction. This stands in contrast to many commonly used materials such as silicon and aluminum, whose properties are comparatively unaffected by the…

High-$T_c$ superconductors are usually described as strongly correlated electronic systems. This feature deeply affects the one-particle and two-particle properties of the system. In particular, a large incoherent background developes on…
Strongly correlated electron systems require the development of new theoretical schemes in order to describe their unusual and unexpected properties. The usual perturbation schemes are inadequate and new concepts must be introduced. In our…

We give a detailed microscopic analysis of why holes are different from electrons in condensed matter. Starting from a single atom with zero, one and two electrons, we show that the spectral functions for electrons and for holes are…
Understanding strongly correlated quantum many-body states is one of the most difficult challenges in modern physics. For example, there remain fundamental open questions on the phase diagram of the Hubbard model, which describes strongly…
The ground state and the excitation spectrum of strongly correlated electrons in quantum dots are investigated. An analytical solution is constructed by exact diagonalization of the Hamiltonian in terms of the $N$-particle eigenmodes.
It has long been thought that strongly correlated systems are adiabatically connected to their noninteracting counterpart. Recent developments have highlighted the fallacy of this traditional notion in a variety of settings. Here we use a…
Most treatments of electron-electron correlations in dense plasmas either ignore them entirely (random phase approximation) or neglect the role of ions (jellium approximation). In this work, we go beyond both these approximations to derive…
