Dynamical mean field methods are used to calculate the phase diagram, many-body density of states, relative orbital occupancy and Fermi surface shape for a realistic model of $LaNiO_3$-based superlattices. The model is derived from density functional band calculations and includes oxygen orbitals. The combination of the on-site Hunds interaction and charge-transfer between the transition metal and the oxygen orbitals is found to reduce the orbital polarization far below the levels predicted either by band structure calculations or by many-body analyses of Hubbard-type models which do not explicitly include the oxygen orbitals. The findings indicate that heterostructuring is unlikely to produce one band model physics and demonstrate the fundamental inadequacy of modeling the physics of late transition metal oxides with Hubbard-like models.

The dynamical mean-field theory (DMFT) is a widely applicable approximation scheme for the investigation of correlated quantum many-particle systems on a lattice, e.g., electrons in solids and cold atoms in optical lattices. In particular, the combin
ation of the DMFT with conventional methods for the calculation of electronic band structures has led to a powerful numerical approach which allows one to explore the properties of correlated materials. In this introductory article we discuss the foundations of the DMFT, derive the underlying self-consistency equations, and present several applications which have provided important insights into the properties of correlated matter.
Transition metal oxide heterostructures often, but by far not always, exhibit strong electronic correlations. State-of-the-art calculations account for these by dynamical mean field theory (DMFT). We discuss the physical situations in which DMFT is n
eeded, not needed, and where it is actually not sufficient. By means of an example, SrVO$_3$/SrTiO$_3$, we discuss step-by-step and figure-by-figure a density functional theory(DFT)+DMFT calculation. The second part reviews DFT+DMFT calculations for oxide heterostructure focusing on titanates, nickelates, vanadates, and ruthenates.
We address the nature of the Mott transition in the Hubbard model at half-filling using cluster Dynamical Mean Field Theory (DMFT). We compare cluster DMFT results with those of single site DMFT. We show that inclusion of the short range correlations
on top of the on-site correlations, already treated exactly in single site DMFT, do not change the nature of the transition between the paramagnetic metal and the paramagnetic Mott insulator, which remains first order. However, the short range correlations reduce substantially the critical $U$ and modify the shape of transition lines. Moreover, they lead to very different physical properties of the metallic and insulating phases near the transition, in particular in the region of the phase diagram where the two solutions coexist. Approaching the transition from the metallic side, we find an anomalous metallic state with very low coherence scale at temperatures as low as $T=0.01t$. The insulating state is characterized by the relatively narrow Mott gap with pronounced peaks at the gap edge.
We describe the use of coupled-cluster theory as an impurity solver in dynamical mean-field theory (DMFT) and its cluster extensions. We present numerical results at the level of coupled-cluster theory with single and double excitations (CCSD) for th
e density of states and self-energies of cluster impurity problems in the one- and two-dimensional Hubbard models. Comparison to exact diagonalization shows that CCSD produces accurate density of states and self-energies at a variety of values of $U/t$ and filling fractions. However, the low cost allows for the use of many bath sites, which we define by a discretization of the hybridization directly on the real frequency axis. We observe convergence of dynamical quantities using approximately 30 bath sites per impurity site, with our largest 4-site cluster DMFT calculation using 120 bath sites. We suggest coupled cluster impurity solvers will be attractive in ab initio formulations of dynamical mean-field theory.
We examine the cluster-size dependence of the cellular dynamical mean-field theory (CDMFT) applied to the two-dimensional Hubbard model. Employing the continuous-time quantum Monte Carlo method as the solver for the effective cluster model, we obtain
CDMFT solutions for 4-, 8-, 12-, and 16-site clusters at a low temperature. Comparing various periodization schemes, which are used to construct the infinite-lattice quantities from the cluster results, we find that the cumulant periodization yields the fastest convergence for the hole-doped Mott insulator where the most severe size dependence is expected. We also find that the convergence is much faster around (0,0) and (pi/2,pi/2) than around (pi,0) and (pi,pi). The cumulant-periodized self-energy seems to be close to its thermodynamic limit already for a 16-site cluster in the range of parameters studied. The 4-site results remarkably agree well with the 16-site results, indicating that the previous studies based on the 4-site cluster capture the essence of the physics of doped Mott insulators.
