The variational cluster approximation is applied to the calculation of the single particle spectral function of NiO. Trial self energies and the numerical value of the Luttinger-Ward functional are obtained by exact diagonalization of…
The variational cluster approximation is applied to the calculation of thermodynamical quantities and single-particle spectra of LaCoO3. Trial self-energies and the numerical value of the Luttinger-Ward functional are obtained by exact…
We apply ab-initio quantum chemical methods to calculate correlation effects on cohesive properties of NiO, thereby extending a recently proposed scheme to transition metal oxides with partially filled $d$-bands. We obtain good agreement…
The structural phase transitions and the fundamental band gaps of Mg(x)Zn(1-x)O alloys are investigated by detailed first-principles calculations in the entire range of Mg concentrations x, applying a multiple-scattering theoretical…
Finding an accurate ab initio approach for calculating the electronic properties of transition metal oxides has been a problem for several decades. In this paper, we investigate the electronic structure of the transition metal monoxides…
Using the hybrid exchange-correlation functional within the density-functional theory, we have systematically investigated the structural and electronic properties of MO (M = Be, Mg, Ca, Sr, Ba, Zn, Cd) in binary rocksalt (B1), zincblende…
The high computational scaling with the number of correlated electrons and the size of the basis set is a bottleneck which limits applications of coupled cluster (CC) algorithms. This is particularly so for calculations based on 2- or…
Maximally localized Wannier functions (MLWFs) based on Kohn-Sham band-structures provide a systematic way to construct realistic, materials specific tight-binding models for further theoretical analysis. Here, we construct MLWFs for the Mn…
Electronic correlations beyond static mean-field theories are of fundamental importance in describing the properties of complex materials - such as transition-metal oxides - where the low-energy physics is driven by localized d or f…
Obtaining accurate band structures of correlated solids has been one of the most important and challenging problems in first-principles electronic structure calculation. There have been promising recent active developments of wave function…
We consider the spectral and dynamical properties of quantum systems of $n$ particles on the lattice $\Z^d$, of arbitrary dimension, with a Hamiltonian which in addition to the kinetic term includes a random potential with iid values at the…
We present a method for calculating the spectrum of extended solids within reduced density matrix functional theory. An application of this method to the strongly correlated transition metal oxide series demonstrates that (i) an insulating…
The quasiparticle band structures of nonmagnetic monoxides, MO (M=Mg, Ca, Ti, and V), are calculated by the GW approximation. The band gap and the width of occupied oxygen 2p states in insulating MgO and CaO agree with experimental…
We report calculations of the band structures and density of states of the four transition metal monoxides MnO, FeO, CoO and NiO using the hybrid density functional sX-LDA. Late transition metal oxides are prototypical examples of strongly…
We describe the implementation details of periodic local coupled-cluster theory with single and double excitations (CCSD) and perturbative triple excitations [CCSD(T)] using local natural orbitals (LNOs) and $k$-point symmetry. We discuss…
We propose a many-body method for band-structure calculations in strongly correlated electron systems and apply it to NiO. The method may be viewed as a translationally invariant version of the cluster method of Fujimori and Minami. Thereby…
Calculations of the binding energy of the transition metal oxide molecules TiO and MnO are presented, using a recently developed phaseless auxiliary field quantum Monte Carlo approach. This method maps the interacting many-body problem onto…
In the R1/2D1/2MnO3 manganites (R: rare earth, D: divalent cation), the structural phase transition at Tco is commonly interpreted as a concomitant charge and orbital ordering (CO/OO) process driven by a cooperative Jahn-Teller effect and…
A band structure description of the observed large band gaps and moments in both the antiferromagnetic (AFM) and paramagnetic (PM) phases of the classic NaCl-structure Mott insulators MnO, FeO, CoO, and NiO is provided by ordinary,…
