More Disclaimers
• Leave out inhomogeneous states and ignore disorder.
• What can we understand about the evolution of the
electronic structure from a minimal model of a doped
Mott insulator, using Dynamical Mean Field Theory ?
• Approach the problem directly from finite
temperatures,not from zero temperature. Address
issues of finite frequency –temperature crossovers. As
we increase the temperature DMFT becomes more and
more accurate.
• DMFT provides a reference frame capable of describing
coherence-incoherence crossover phenomena.

Problems with the approach.
• Neel order. How to continue a Neel insulating state ?
Need to treat properly finite T.
• Temperature dependence of the penetration depth [Wen
and Lee , Ioffe and Millis ] . Theory:r[T]=x-Ta x2 , Exp:
r[T]= x-T a.
• Mean field is too uniform on the Fermi surface, in
contradiction with ARPES.
• No quantitative computations in the regime where there
is a coherent-incoherent crossover,compare well with
experiments. [e.g. Ioffe Kotliar 1989]
The development of DMFT solves may solve many of these
problems.!!
Impurity Model-----Lattice Model
Parametrizes the physics in
terms of a few functions .
D , Weiss Field
Alternative (T. Stanescu and
G. K. ) periodize the cumulants
rather than the self energies.
Cluster DMFT schemes
• Mapping of a lattice model onto a quantum impurity model (degrees
of freedom in the presence of a Weiss field, the central concept in
DMFT). Contain two elements.
• 1) Determination of the Weiss field in terms of cluster quantities.
• 2) Determination of lattice quantities in terms of cluster quantities
(periodization).
Controlled Approximation, i.e. theory can tell when the it is reliable!!
Several methods,(Bethe, Pair Scheme, DCA, CDMFT, Nested
Schemes, Fictive Impurity Model, etc.) field is rapidly developing.

About CDMFT
• Reference frame (such as FLT-DFT ) but is
able describe strongly correlated
electrons at finite temperatures, in a
regime where the quasiparticle picture is
not valid.
• It easily describes a Fermi liquid state
when there is one, at low temperatures
and the coherence incoherence crossover.
Functional mean field!
•
CDMFT study of cuprates
.
AFunctional of the cluster Greens function. Allows the investigation of the normal
state underlying the superconducting state, by forcing a symmetric Weiss function,
we can follow the normal state near the Mott transition.
• Earlier studies use QMC (Katsnelson and Lichtenstein, (1998) M Hettler et. T. Maier
et. al. (2000) . ) used QMC as an impurity solver and DCA as cluster scheme. (Limits
U to less than 8t )
• Use exact diag ( Krauth Caffarel 1995 ) as a solver to reach larger U’s
and smaller Temperature and CDMFT as the mean field scheme.
• Recently (K. Haule and GK ) the region near the superconducting –normal state
transition temperature near optimal doping was studied using NCA + DCA .
• DYNAMICAL GENERALIZATION OF SLAVE BOSON ANZATS
 w-S(k,w)+m= w/b2 -(D+b2 t) (cos kx + cos ky)/b2 +l

• Extends the functional form of self energy to finite T and higher frequency.

2X2 CDMFT
Approaching the Mott transition:
CDMFT Picture
• Fermi Surface Breakup. Qualitative effect,
momentum space differentiation. Formation of
hot –cold regions is an unavoidable
consequence of the approach to the Mott
insulating state!
• D wave gapping of the single particle spectra as
the Mott transition is approached. Real and
Imaginary part of the self energies grow
approaching half filling. Unlike weak coupling!
• Similar scenario was encountered in previous
study of the kappa organics. O Parcollet G.

Conclusion
• CDMFT delivers the spectra.
• Path between d-wave and insulator. Dynamical RVB!
• Lines of zeros. Connection with other work. of A. Tsvelik
and collaborators. (Perturbation theory in chains , see
however Biermann et.al). T.Stanescu, fully self

• Weak coupling RG (T. M. Rice and collaborators).

Superconducting State t’=0. How
does the superconductor relate to
the Mott insulator
• Does the Hubbard model superconduct ?
• Is there a superconducting dome ?
• Does the superconductivity scale with J ?
• How does the gap and the order
parameter scale with doping ?

Low energy sum rule can

neighbor it gives the

Treatement needs refinement
• The kinetic energy of the Hubbard model
contains both the kinetic energy of the
holes, and the superexchange energy of
the spins.
• Physically they are very different.
• Experimentally only measures the kinetic
energy of the holes.
Conclusion
• There is still a lot to be understood about
the homogenous problem.
• CDMFT is a significant extension of the
slave boson approach.
• It offers an exceptional opportunity to
advance the field by having a close
interaction of the “theoretical
spectroscopy” and experiments.
