PROGRAM: STRONGLY CORRELATED SYSTEMS: FROM MODELS TO MATERIALS

DATES: Monday 06 Jan, 2014 - Friday 17 Jan, 2014

VENUE: Department of Physics, IISc Campus, Bangalore

The
realistic description of materials with strong electron-electron
interactions is one of the challenges of modern condensed matter
physics. Such a realistic description on one hand requires
non-perturbative many body approaches, and on the other hand requires
model Hamiltonian with material specific details offered by density
functional theory (DFT). Mastering these novel techniques requires a
wide background, ranging from DFT to model building and non-perturbative
many body approaches such as Quantum Monte Carlo. During the last few
years a major breakthrough came with the development of the
DFT+Dynamical Mean Field Theory (DFT+DMFT) method. In this approach,
conventional ab-initio schemes based on DFT are combined with a modern
many-body approach, the dynamical mean-field theory (DMFT). In the DMFT
method the full many body problem of solid state physics is mapped onto a
quantum impurity model related by a self-consistency condition and the
resulting impurity model is solved using non-perturbative many body
techniques.

The present program has this circle of ideas as its
focus. It is built around three Chandrasekhar lectures to be delivered
by Prof A. Georges. In addition to these lectures there will be a
school, divided into two parts, and a discussion meeting, scheduled
between the two parts of the school, in which recent theoretical and
experimental results on strongly correlated materials will be discussed
by leading experts from India and abroad.

The school will be devoted to the following topics.

School Part I : Jan 6 -- Jan 9, 2014

a) Basic Density Functional Theory (DFT) and basis sets

b) Wannier functions




c) An introduction to many-body methods and Quantum Monte Carlo

d) Constrained LDA/RPA and Estimation of U and J

School Part II : Jan 14 -- Jan 17, 2014

a) Dynamical Mean Field Theory (DMFT)

b) Impurity Solvers

c) GW+DMFT

d) DFT+DMFT

The
program is designed to educate advanced graduate students and young
post-doctoral fellows in this emerging field of strongly correlated
systems and to train them to carry out numerical calculations.
