Using a second-order perturbative Greens functions approach we determined the normal state single-particle spectral function $A(vec{k},omega)$ employing a minimal effective model for iron-based superconductors. The microscopic model, used before to study magnetic fluctuations and superconducting properties, includes the two effective tight-binding bands proposed by S.Raghu et al. [Phys. Rev. B 77, 220503 (R) (2008)], and intra- and inter-orbital local electronic correlations, related to the Fe-3d orbitals. Here, we focus on the study of normal state electronic properties, in particular the temperature and doping dependence of the total density of states, $A(omega)$, and of $A(vec{k},omega)$ in different Brillouin zone regions, and compare them to the existing angle resolved photoemission spectroscopy (ARPES) and previous theoretical results in ferropnictides. We obtain an asymmetric effect of electron and hole doping, quantitative agreement with the experimental chemical potential shifts as a function of doping, as well as spectral weight redistributions near the Fermi level as a function of temperature consistent with the available experimental data. In addition, we predict a non-trivial dependence of the total density of states with the temperature, exhibiting clear renormalization effects by correlations. Interestingly, investigating the origin of this predicted behaviour by analyzing the evolution with temperature of the k-dependent self-energy obtained in our approach, we could identify a number of specific Brillouin zone points, none of them probed by ARPES experiments yet, where the largest non-trivial effects of temperature on the renormalization are present.

We study the effects of finite temperature on normal state properties of a metal near a quantum critical point to an antiferromagnetic or Ising-nematic state. At $T = 0$ bosonic and fermionic self-energies are traditionally computed within Eliashberg theory and obey scaling relations with characteristic power-laws. Quantum Monte Carlo (QMC) simulations have shown strong systematic deviations from these predictions, casting doubt on the validity of the theoretical analysis. We extend Eliashberg theory to finite $T$ and argue that for the $T$ range accessible in the QMC simulations, the scaling forms for both fermionic and bosonic self energies are quite different from those at $T = 0$. We compare finite $T$ results with QMC data and find good agreement for both systems. This, we argue, resolves the key apparent contradiction between the theory and the QMC simulations.
In strongly correlated multi-orbital systems, various ordered phases appear. In particular, the orbital order in iron-based superconductors attracts much attention since it is considered to be the origin of the nematic state. In order to clarify the essential condition for realizing orbital orders, we study simple two-orbital ($d_{xz}$, $d_{yz}$) Hubbard model. We find that the orbital order, which corresponds to the nematic order, appears due to the vertex corrections even in the two-orbital model. Thus, $d_{xy}$ orbital is not essential to realize the nematic orbital order. The obtained orbital order depends on the orbital dependence and the topology of fermi surfaces. We also find that another type of orbital order, which is rotated $45^circ$, appears in the heavily hole-doped case.
A perturbation spin-wave theory for the quantum Heisenberg antiferromagnets on a square lattice is proposed to calculate the uniform static magnetic susceptibility at finite temperatures, where a divergence in the previous theories due to an artificial phase transition has been removed. To the zeroth order, the main features of the uniform static susceptibility are produced: a linear temperature dependence at low temperatures and a smooth crossover in the intermediate range and the Curie law at high temperatures. When the leading corrections from the spin-wave interactions are included, the resulting spin susceptibility in the full temperature range is in agreement with the numerical quantum Monte Carlo simulations and high-temperature series expansions.
We present determinant quantum Monte Carlo simulations of the hole-doped single-band Hubbard-Holstein model on a square lattice, to investigate how quasiparticles emerge when doping a Mott insulator (MI) or a Peierls insulator (PI). The MI regime at large Hubbard interaction $U$ and small relative electron-phonon coupling strength $lambda$ is quickly suppressed upon doping, by drawing spectral weight from the upper Hubbard band and shifting the lower Hubbard band towards the Fermi level, leading to a metallic state with emergent quasiparticles at the Fermi level. On the other hand, the PI regime at large $lambda$ and small $U$ persists out to relatively high doping levels. We study the evolution of the $d$-wave superconducting susceptibility with doping, and find that it increases with lowering temperature in a regime of intermediate values of $U$ and $lambda$.
We employ the phenomenological theory of the quasiparticle relaxation based on the simplified two-band description and the spin-fluctuation induced interband coupling to analyze recent normal-state transport data in electron-doped iron pnictides, in particular the Ba(Fe_1-x Co_x)_2As_2 family. Temperature dependence of the resistivity, thermopower and the Hall constant are evaluated. It is shown that their anomalous behavior emerging from experiments can be consistently described within the same framework assuming also non-Fermi-liquid spin fluctuations.
