Although the density functional theory plus Hubbard $U$ correction method (DFT+U) is broadly used to study electronic structure of strongly correlated materials, the extension of this method to electron-phonon $g$ matrices has received…

We present a method for calculating the electronic structure of correlated materials based on a truly first-principles LDA+U scheme. Recently we suggested how to calculate U from first-principles, using a method which we named constrained…

A first-principles electronic structure study of orthorhombic, monoclinic and rhombohedral LiMnO$_{2}$ has been carried out using the full-potential linearized augmented plane-wave method. The exchange and correlations have been treated…

The influence of correlation effects on the orbital moments for transition metals and their alloys is studied by first-principle relativistic Density Functional Theory in combination with the Dynamical Mean-Field Theory. In contrast to the…

Density functional theory (DFT) has been widely applied to a variety of realistic materials but often struggles to explain the properties of correlated systems. The DFT + U method, which introduces a Hubbard U correction to the DFT, has…

We report calculations of the electronic structure of FeO in the LDA and LDA+U approximation with and without rhombohedral distortion. In both cases LDA renders an antiferromagnetic metal, and LDA+U opens a Hubbard gap. However, the…

Recent experiments on isolated Co clusters have shown huge orbital magnetic moments in comparison with their bulk and surface counterparts. These clusters hence provide the unique possibility to study the evolution of the orbital magnetic…

The electronic structure of lanthanide and actinide compounds is often characterized by orbital ordering of localized $f$-electrons. Density-functional theory (DFT) studies of such systems using the currently available LDA+$U$ method are…

To explore the formation of noncollinear magnetic configurations in materials with strongly correlated electrons, we derive a noncollinear LSDA+$U$ model involving only one parameter $U$, as opposed to the difference between the Hubbard and…

We have performed a systematic study of the emergence of meta-stable states in density functional theory plus Hubbard U (DFT+U ) simulations of NiO, CoO, FeO. Particular attention is given to the spin-polarization of the…

Experimental evidence both for and against a half-metallic ground-state of the Heusler compound Co2FeSi has been published. Density functional theory based calculations suggest a non half-metallic ground state. It has been argued, that…

The description of realistic strongly correlated systems has recently advanced through the combination of density functional theory in the local density approximation (LDA) and dynamical mean field theory (DMFT). This LDA+DMFT method is…

The influence of vacancies and interstitial atoms on magnetism in Pu has been considered in frames of the Density Functional Theory (DFT). The relaxation of crystal structure arising due to different types of defects was calculated using…

The large-degeneracy expansion for dilute magnetic alloys is extended to account for conduction electrons interactions. Particular attention is paid to the renormalization of the hybridization vertex which affects the low-energy…

The LDA+DMFT (local density approximation combined with dynamical mean-field theory) computation scheme has been used to study spectral and magnetic properties of FeSi and Fe$_{1-x}$Co$_{x}$Si. Having compared different models we conclude…

We discuss the application of the density functional theory in the local density approximation (LDA) near a ferromagnetic quantum critical point. The LDA fails to describe the critical fluctuations in this regime. This provides a…

Predicting the compositional phase stability of strongly correlated electron materials is an outstanding challenge in condensed matter physics. In this work, we employ the DFT+U formalism to address the effects of local correlations due to…

The calculation of electronic properties of materials is an important task of solid state theory, albeit particularly difficult if electronic correlations are strong, for example in transition metals, their oxides and in f-electron systems.…

A systematic LSDA+U study of doping effects on the electronic and structural properties of single layer CoO2 is presented. Undoped CoO2 is a charge transfer insulator within LSDA+U and a metal with a high density of states (DOS) at the…

We review recent results on the properties of materials with correlated electrons obtained within the LDA+DMFT approach, a combination of a conventional band structure approach based on the local density approximation (LDA) and the…
