Hands-on Tutorial course on LDA+DMFT

17-20 May 2005

at the Institute of Theoretical Physics, University of Hamburg

Overview:

A hands-on tutorial workshop introducing the LDA+DMFT method for realistic investigation of correlated materials

will be held at the Institute of Theoretical Physics, University of Hamburg.

Scientific scope:

The correlated electronic structure (LDA+DMFT) approach based on the NMTO first-principle tight-binding method

(developed by Prof. O. K. Andersen at MPI-Stuttgart) and multi-band cluster QMC-scheme for the realistic

Dynamical Mean-Field Calculations (for introduction, see G. Kotliar and D. Vollhardt, Physics Today 57, 53, (2004))

become a useful tool for investigation of correlated materials:

A. Poteryaev, et. al. Phys. Rev. Lett. 93, 086401 (2004)

E. Pavarini, et. al. Phys. Rev. Lett. 92, 176403 (2004)

S. Biermann, et. al. Phys. Rev. Lett. 94, 026404 (2005)

The purpose of this workshop is to offer an introduction to the LDA+DMFT scheme and

practical calculations of correlated system using multiband QMC code.
