Do electrons become ferromagnetic just because of their repulisve Coulomb interaction? Our calculations on the three-dimensional electron gas imply that itinerant ferromagnetim of delocalized electrons without lattice and band structure, the most basic model considered by Stoner, is suppressed due to many-body correlations as speculated already by Wigner, and a possible ferromagnetic transition lowering the density is precluded by the formation of the Wigner crystal.

We propose a mechanism for binding of diatomic ligands to heme based on a dynamical orbital selection process. This scenario may be described as bonding determined by local valence fluctuations. We support this model using linear-scaling first-princi ples calculations, in combination with dynamical mean-field theory, applied to heme, the kernel of the hemoglobin metalloprotein central to human respiration. We find that variations in Hunds exchange coupling induce a reduction of the iron 3d density, with a concomitant increase of valence fluctuations. We discuss the comparison between our computed optical absorption spectra and experimental data, our picture accounting for the observation of optical transitions in the infrared regime, and how the Hunds coupling reduces, by a factor of five, the strong imbalance in the binding energies of heme with CO and O_2 ligands.
A dynamical generalisation of the nonlocal coherent-potential approximation is derived based upon the functional integral approach to the interacting electron problem. The free energy is proven to be variational with respect to the self-energy provid ed a self-consistency condition on a cluster of sites is satisfied. In the present work, calculations are performed within the static approximation and the effect of the nonlocal physics on the formation of the local moment state in a simple model is investigated. The results reveal the importance of the dynamical correlations.
We give a brief summary of the current status of the electron many-body problem in graphene. We claim that graphene has intrinsic dielectric properties which should dress the interactions among the quasiparticles, and may explain why the observation of electron-electron renormalization effects has been so elusive in the recent experiments. We argue that the strength of Coulomb interactions in graphene may be characterized by an effective fine structure constant given by $alpha^{star}(mathbf{k},omega)equiv2.2/epsilon(mathbf{k},omega)$, where $epsilon(mathbf{k},omega)$ is the dynamical dielectric function. At long wavelengths, $alpha^{star}(mathbf{k},omega)$ appears to have its smallest value in the static regime, where $alpha^{star}(mathbf{k}to0,0)approx1/7$ according to recent inelastic x-ray measurements, and the largest value in the optical limit, where $alpha^{star}(0,omega)approx2.6$. We conclude that the strength of Coulomb interactions in graphene is not universal, but depends highly on the scale of the phenomenon of interest. We propose a prescription in order to reconcile different experiments.
We study the dynamical magnetic susceptibility of a strongly correlated electronic system in the presence of a time-dependent hopping field, deriving a generalized Bethe-Salpeter equation which is valid also out of equilibrium. Focusing on the single -orbital Hubbard model within the time-dependent Hartree-Fock approximation, we solve the equation in the non-equilibrium adiabatic regime, obtaining a closed expression for the transverse magnetic susceptibility. From this, we provide a rigorous definition of non-equilibrium (time-dependent) magnon frequencies and exchange parameters, expressed in terms of non-equilibrium single-electron Green functions and self-energies. In the particular case of equilibrium, we recover previously known results.

In this work we propose to simulate many-body thermodynamics of infinite-size quantum lattice models in one, two, and three dimensions, in terms of few-body models of only O(10) sites, which we coin as quantum entanglement simulators (QESs). The QES is described by a temperature-independent Hamiltonian, with the boundary interactions optimized by the tensor network methods to mimic the entanglement between the bulk and environment in a finite-size canonical ensemble. The reduced density matrix of the physical bulk then gives that of the infinite-size canonical ensemble under interest. We show that the QES can, for instance, accurately simulate varieties of many-body phenomena, including finite-temperature crossover and algebraic excitations of the one-dimensional spin liquid, the phase transitions and low-temperature physics of the two- and three-dimensional antiferromagnets, and the crossovers of the two-dimensional topological system. Our work provides an efficient way to explore the thermodynamics of intractable quantum many-body systems with easily accessible systems.
