In this work, we report the pressure dependence of the effective Coulomb interaction parameters (Hubbard U) in paramagnetic NiO within the constrained random phase approximation (cRPA). We consider five different low energy models starting from the most expensive one that treats both Ni-d and O-p states as correlated orbitals (dp-dp model) to the smallest possible two-orbital model comprising the eg states only (eg-eg model). We find that in all the considered models, the bare interactions are not very sensitive to the compression. However the partially screened interaction parameters show an almost linear increment as a function of compression, resulting from the substantial weakening of screening effects upon compression. This counterintuitive trend is explained from the specific characteristic changes of the basic electronic structure of this system. We further calculate the nearest neighbor inter-site d-d interaction terms which also show substantial enhancement due to compression. Our results for both the experimental and highly compressed structures reveal that the frequency dependence of the partially screened interactions can not be ignored in a realistic modeling of NiO. We also find that the computed interaction parameters for the antiferromagnetic NiO are almost identical to their paramagnetic counter parts.

We study the interplay between Mott physics, driven by Coulomb repulsion U, and Hund physics, driven by Hunds coupling J, for a minimal model for Hund metals, the orbital-symmetric three-band Hubbard-Hund model (3HHM) for a lattice filling of 1/3. Hu
nd-correlated metals are characterized by spin-orbital separation (SOS), a Hunds-rule-induced two-stage Kondo-type screening process, in which spin screening occurs at much lower energy scales than orbital screening. By contrast, in Mott-correlated metals, lying close to the phase boundary of a metal-insulator transition, the SOS window becomes negligibly small and the Hubbard bands are well separated. Using dynamical mean-field theory and the numerical renormalization group as real-frequency impurity solver, we identify numerous fingerprints distinguishing Hundness from Mottness in the temperature dependence of various physical quantities. These include ARPES-type spectra, the local self-energy, static local orbital and spin susceptibilities, resistivity, thermopower, and lattice and impurity entropies. Our detailed description of the behavior of these quantities within the context of a simple model Hamiltonian will be helpful for distinguishing Hundness from Mottness in experimental and theoretical studies of real materials.
The treatment of intershell interactions remains a major challenge in the theoretical description of strongly correlated materials. Most previous approaches considered the influence of intershell interactions at best in a static fashion, neglecting d
ynamic effects. In this work, we propose a slave-rotor method that goes beyond this approximation by incorporating the effect of intershell interactions in a dynamic manner. Our method is derived and implemented as a quantum impurity solver in the context of dynamical mean field theory and benchmarked on a two-orbital model system. The results from our slave-rotor technique are found to be in good agreement with our reference calculations that include intershell interactions explicitly. We identify and analyze qualitative features emerging from the dynamic treatment. Our results thus provide qualitatively new insights, revealing the ambivalent effect of intershell interactions in strongly correlated materials.
We report on Hybrid-Monte-Carlo simulations at finite spin density of the $pi$-band electrons in monolayer graphene with realistic inter-electron interactions. Unlike simulations at finite charge-carrier density, these are not affected by a fermion-s
ign problem. Our results are in qualitative agreement with an interaction-induced warping of the Fermi contours, and a reduction of the bandwidth as observed in angle resolved photoemission spectroscopy experiments on charge-doped graphene systems. Furthermore, we find evidence that the neck-disrupting Lifshitz transition, which occurs when the Fermi level traverses the van Hove singularity (VHS), becomes a true quantum phase transition due to interactions. This is in-line with an instability of the VHS towards the formation of electronic ordered phases, which has been predicted by a variety of different theoretical approaches.
An antiferromagnetic Hund coupling in multiorbital Hubbard systems induces orbital freezing and an associated superconducting instability, as well as unique composite orders in the case of an odd number of orbitals. While the rich phase diagram of th
e half-filled three-orbital model has recently been explored in detail, the properties of the doped system remain to be clarified. Here, we complement the previous studies by computing the entropy of the half-filled model, which exhibits an increase in the orbital-frozen region, and a suppression in the composite ordered phase. The doping dependent phase diagram shows that the composite ordered state can be stabilized in the doped Mott regime, if conventional electronic orders are suppressed by frustration. While antiferro orbital order dominates the filling range $2lesssim n le 3$, and ferro orbital order the strongly interacting region for $1lesssim n < 2$, we find superconductivity with a remarkably high $T_c$ around $n=1.5$ (quarter filling). Also in the doped system, there is a close connection between the orbital freezing crossover and superconductivity.
Neutron-scattering and specific-heat measurements of the heavy-fermion superconductor URu2Si2 under hydrostatic pressure and with Rh-doping [U(Ru{0.98}Rh{0.02})2Si2] show the existence of two magnetic phase transitions. At the second-order phase tran
sition Tm ≈ 17.5 K, a tiny ordered moment is established, while at TM < Tm, a first-order phase transition (under pressure or doping) gives rise to a large moment. The results can be understood in terms of a hidden OP Psi coupled to the ordered moment m, where m and Psi have the same symmetry.
