Using LDA+GTB multi-band approach, we studied the compression dependence of the electronic structure and in-plane superexchange interaction J(P) in the antiferromagnetic La214 at the 0% and 3% - hydrostatic and unaxial (along c axial) compression. We obtained the superexchange interaction J(P=0)~0.15eV is enhanced by ~20% under the 3% - hydrostatic compression and vice versa the J(P) is decreased slightly by ~5,7% under the 3% - uniaxial compression. In both cases the J(P) correlates with the in-plane hopping parameters and dd-excitation energy delta_s=e(^3B_{1})-e(A_{1})$ involving the the two-hole states: Zhang-Rice singlet and ^3{B_{1}} triplet states. The spectral density of the first removal states is a combined singlet-triplet character and a sign of changes in the one with the pressure clearly reproduces the vec{k}-distribution of quasiparticle states with a different a_1- and b_1-symmetry over the Brillouin zone as a whole.

The correlated electronic structure of SrVO3 has been investigated by angle-resolved photoemission spectroscopy using in-situ prepared thin films. Pronounced features of band renormalization have been observed: a sharp kink ~60 meV below the Fermi level (EF) and a broad so-called high-energy kink ~0.3 eV below EF as in the high-Tc cuprates although SrVO3 does not show magnetic fluctuations. We have deduced the self-energy in a wide energy range by applying the Kramers-Kronig relation to the observed spectra. The obtained self-energy clearly shows a large energy scale of ~0.7 eV which is attributed to electron-electron interaction and gives rise to the ~0.3 eV kink in the band dispersion as well as the incoherent peak ~1.5eV below EF. The present analysis enables us to obtain consistent picture both for the incoherent spectra and the band renormalization.
We investigate the temperature-dependent electronic structure of the van der Waals ferromagnet, CrGeTe$_3$. Using angle-resolved photoemission spectroscopy, we identify atomic- and orbital-specific band shifts upon cooling through ${T_mathrm{C}}$. From these, together with x-ray absorption spectroscopy and x-ray magnetic circular dichroism measurements, we identify the states created by a covalent bond between the Te ${5p}$ and the Cr ${e_g}$ orbitals as the primary driver of the ferromagnetic ordering in this system, while it is the Cr ${t_{2g}}$ states that carry the majority of the spin moment. The ${t_{2g}}$ states furthermore exhibit a marked bandwidth increase and a remarkable lifetime enhancement upon entering the ordered phase, pointing to a delicate interplay between localized and itinerant states in this family of layered ferromagnets.
We present a detailed Cu K-edge resonant inelastic X-ray scattering (RIXS) study of the Mott insulator La2CuO4 in the 1-7 eV energy transfer range. As initially found for the high-temperature superconductor HgBa2CuO4+d, the spectra exhibit a multiplet of weakly-dispersive electron-hole excitations, which are revealed by utilizing the subtle dependence of the cross section on the incident photon energy. The close similarity between the fine structures for in-plane and out-of-plane polarizations is indicative of the central role played by the 1s core hole in inducing charge excitations within the CuO2 planes. On the other hand, we observe a polarization dependence of the spectral weight, and careful analysis reveals two separate features near 2 eV that may be related to different charge-transfer processes. The polarization dependence indicates that the 4p electrons contribute significantly to the RIXS cross section. Third-order perturbation arguments and a shake-up of valence excitations are then applied to account for the final-energy resonance in the spectra. As an alternative scenario, we discuss fluorescence-like emission processes due to 1s -> 4p transitions into a narrow continuum 4p band.
We consider zero temperature behavior of dynamic response functions of 1D systems near edges of support in momentum-energy plane $(k, omega).$ The description of the singularities of dynamic response functions near an edge $epsilon(k)$ is given by the effective Hamiltonian of a mobile impurity moving in a Luttinger liquid. For Galilean-invariant systems, we relate the parameters of such an effective Hamiltonian to the properties of the function $epsilon (k).$ This allows us to express the exponents which characterize singular response functions of spinless bosonic or fermionic liquids in terms of $epsilon(k)$ and Luttinger liquid parameters for any $k.$ For an antiferromagnetic Heisenberg spin-1/2 chain in a zero magnetic field, SU(2) invariance fixes the exponents from purely phenomenological considerations.
We investigate the generic features of the low energy dynamical spin structure factor of the Kitaev honeycomb quantum spin liquid perturbed away from its exact soluble limit by generic symmetry-allowed exchange couplings. We find that the spin gap persists in the Kitaev-Heisenberg model, but generally vanishes provided more generic symmetry-allowed interactions exist. We formulate the generic expansion of the spin operator in terms of fractionalized Majorana fermion operators according to the symmetry enriched topological order of the Kitaev spin liquid, described by its projective symmetry group. The dynamical spin structure factor displays power-law scaling bounded by Dirac cones in the vicinity of the $Gamma$, $K$ and $K$ points of the Brillouin zone, rather than the spin gap found for the exactly soluble point.
