We use the local density approximation (LDA) and LDA+U schemes to study the magnetism of (GaMn)As and (GaMn)N for a number of Mn concentrations and varying number of holes. We show that for both systems and both calculational schemes the…

A general reformulation of the exchange energy of $5f$-shell is applied in the analysis of the magnetic structure of various actinides compounds in the framework of LDA+U method. The calculations are performed in an efficient scheme with…

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…

We present an approach that combines the local density approximation (LDA) and the dynamical mean-field theory (DMFT) in the framework of the full-potential linear augmented plane waves (FLAPW) method. Wannier-like functions for the…

In the Letter [J. Nucl. Mater. 444, 356 (2014)] and Comment [Phys Rev B 90, 157101 (2014)], Soderlind et al. argue that 1) DFT based on GGA already models U metal and U-Zr alloy accurately, and 2) DFT + U models them worse than DFT…

We report electronic structure calculations of an iron impurity in gold host. The spin, orbital and dipole magnetic moments were investigated using the LDA+$U$ correlated band theory. We show that the {\em around-mean-field}-LDA+$U$…

Correlation effects are observed strong in Iron chalcogenides superconductors by experimental and theoretical investigations. We present a comparative study of the influence of Coulomb interaction and Hund's coupling in the electronic…

The generalized gradient approximation (GGA) scheme in the first-principles calculations are used to study the effect of L21 and XA ordering on the phase stability, half-metallicity and magnetism of Co2FeAl (CFA) Heusler alloy. Various…

We study the crystal structure of Pd(100) ultrathin films, which show ferromagnetism induced by the quantum confinement effect, using in-situ X-ray crystal truncation rod measurement and density functional calculation. The energy gain due…

DFT+U is a widely used treatment in the density functional theory (DFT) to deal with correlated materials that contain open-shell elements, whereby the quantitative and sometimes even qualitative failures of local and semilocal…

The electronic structure and magnetic properties of the strongly correlated material La$_2$O$_3$Fe$_2$Se$_2$ are studied by using both the density function theory plus $U$ (DFT+$U$) method and the DFT plus Gutzwiller (DFT+G) variational…

Adsorbed transition metal atoms can have partially filled $d$- or $f$-shells due to strong on-site Coulomb interaction. Capturing all effects originating from electron correlation in such strongly correlated systems is a challenge for…

We give a summary of recent progress in the field of electronic structure calculations for materials with strong electronic Coulomb correlations. The discussion focuses on developments beyond the by now well established combination of…

A novel approach to electronic correlations and magnetism of crystals based on realistic electronic structure calculations is reviewed. In its simplest form it is a combination of the ``local density approximation'' (LDA) and the dynamical…

We present a DFT+U-type functional for strong correlation, derived from multiconfigurational wavefunction theory. The reference system experiences electron-electron interactions only in DFT+U-type atomic states, yielding a block-localized…

The debate whether uranium 5f electrons are closer to being localized or itinerant in the ferromagnetic compound UGa2 is not yet fully settled. The experimentally determined magnetic moments are large, approximately 3 Bohr magnetons,…

The single-molecule magnet $\mathrm{[Ni(hmp)(MeOH)Cl]_4}$ is studied using both density functional theory (DFT) and the DFT+U method, and the results are compared. By incorporating a Hubbard-U like term for both the nickel and oxygen atoms,…

The so-called local density approximation plus the multi-orbital mean-field Hubbard model (LDA+U) has been implemented within the all-electron projector augmented-wave method (PAW), and then used to compute the insulating antiferromagnetic…

The density functional theory (DFT)+$U$ method is a pragmatic and effective approach for calculating the ground-state properties of strongly-correlated systems, and linear response calculations are widely used to determine the requisite…

The LDA+DMFT method is a very powerful tool for gaining insight into the physics of strongly correlated materials. It combines traditional ab-initio density-functional techniques with the dynamical mean-field theory. The core aspects of the…
